Mean Metal Motors is set to launch the Azani, Indias first electric hypercar, on January 15, 2025. The vehicle boasts a 986 bhp electric motor, a 0-100 km/h acceleration in 2 seconds, and a top speed of 350 km/h. It also features a range of 550-700 km on a single charge and a drag coefficient of 0.26. The expected price ranges from Rs. 88 lakh to Rs. 1.2 crore. I think this pricing is competitive and could attract both Indian and global buyers.

The Azani will be built using a unique, cost-effective manufacturing process involving micro-facilities and modular production, reducing traditional manufacturing costs by a significant margin. This approach will allow Mean Metal Motors to offer the Azani at a lower cost despite its premium features. The company is collaborating with experts from the UK, Germany, and the US to refine the design and performance.

The Azani is designed with an aluminum spaceframe on a skateboard chassis, and most of the bodywork will be made of aluminum. It features adaptive and magneto-rheologically controlled suspension, along with ventilated carbon discs for braking. I believe the use of such high-tech materials and systems will make the Azani a standout in the hypercar category.

Mean Metal Motors plans to assemble the Azani in smaller factories to reduce production costs. The company claims that the chassis, battery, and electric motors are ready-made modules that can be reused in other projects, further reducing costs. This innovative approach could significantly lower the production expenses compared to conventional methods.

The Azani is expected to have a battery capacity of 120 kWh, providing a range of 550-700 km. It will take around 8 hours to fully charge the battery. The vehicle also features a coupe body type and includes airbags for safety. I think the combination of range and charging time makes it a viable option for long-distance driving.

Mean Metal Motors, the company behind the Azani, previously announced a hybrid car named the M-Zero in 2016, but it never made it to the market. Despite this, the M-Zero generated significant interest, with 750 pre-orders and extensive media coverage. The Azani is seen as a new and ambitious project for the company.
