Powered by Fire-Proof Battery, You Can Charge This E-Motorcycle For Just 25 Paise/Km #IndiaNEWS #Electric Vehicles
PURE EV, a Hyderabad-based electric vehicle (EV) two-wheeler venture, is on the cusp of launching its first electric motorcycle for the commuter segment called the ecoDryft.



Speaking to The Better India, Dr Nishanth Dongari, founder of PURE EV, claims, The average Indian consumer relies on a commuter motorcycle (75cc–125cc segment in IC-engine motorcycle terms) as his daily driver. Commute motorcycles make up about 50% of all two-wheeler sales in India. Currently, there are no other electric motorcycles available for Indian consumers looking for a commuter motorcycle as their daily driver. ???



“The entire product engineering has been done to provide a reliable and comfortable ride experience even at 75 kmph on par with IC-engine motorcycles. This is also a demonstration of PURE EV’s learnings in the powertrain design and development at our R&D centre, he adds.



Long range battery



The ecoDryft has been designed and developed at PURE EV’s technical and manufacturing centre in Hyderabad. The e-motorcycle boasts a top speed of 75 kmph and a single full charge will provide a range of up to 135 km, claims the company. The vehicle is powered by a 3. 0 KWH patented and AIS (Automotive Indian Standard) 156-certified battery, developed by PURE EV.



The all-new ecoDryft is also powered by a Brushless DC (BLDC) motor that generates a peak power of 3 KW and a nominal power of 2 KW with greater than 90% efficiency. Even the controller for the motor is run by our in-house developed algorithm that ensures the most efficient and optimum power output, explains Dr Dongari, who is also an associate professor at the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, IIT Hyderabad.



“We have been carrying out extensive trials and testing for this product and are confident that the product will deliver highly competitive performance with respect to the existing range of IC-engine motorcycles and will be another step in the direction of switching customers towards EVs. This e-motorcycle is a game changer not only for the company but also for the country’s EV adoption vision,??? he adds.



Going further, the ecoDryft comes with a semi-portable battery pack.  



“The vehicle can be plugged into a standard three-pin power socket, and it takes three hours to charge from 20% to 80%. Normally, a 3 KWH battery consumes three units of electricity. For example, if the unit cost of electricity is Rs 8, then the average cost per kilometre would be around 25 paise which is less than 20% of the cost per kilometre compared to a petrol-powered commuter motorcycle,??? he explains.
