Electric Tata Nano (Jayem Neo) with Ola Stickers Spotted in Hyderabad

Electric Tata Nano Spotted in Hyderabad: Jayem Automotives, the Coimbatore-based automotive brand, is all set to deliver 400 units of the new Jayem Neo hatchback to OLA Cabs in Hyderabad. Never heard of this name before? Let’s make things simple. It is an electric variant of Tata Nano, carrying exactly the same body shell and is equipped with an electric drive-train instead of the petrol motor.

Jayem and Tata Motors have a healthy corporate relationship for a long time and this partnership is not at all a surprise for auto enthusiasts of the country. JT Special Vehicles, a joint venture between both the brands, will even bring some sports versions of Tata Nano in the coming months. Tata Nano Electra EV will supply the drive-train, battery pack, and charging solution to the new Jayem Neo.

The car now weighs around 800 kg and comes with a 48-volt electric system that generates a maximum power of 23 HP. The biggest limitation for this car is its availability for the fleet market and hence, buyers will have to wait for a more powerful private vehicle version with a Tata badge. The 'OLA Electric Vehicle’ stickers will be seen on both sides. Jayem claims that the performance of this EV will be more than necessary for a perfect city ride. ARAI claimed the range is 200 km while the same drops to 140 km with four passengers and air conditioning.

Jayem will be delivering 400 Neo cars to Ola cabs at a launch event expected to happen soon. The move seems practical but overall range can turn out to be a problem for taxi operators. It would be only beneficial if Jayem brought out fast charging docks at important locations to compensate for their extra-riding nature. Overall, environmentalists would be pleased to see electric taxis around the town. Images Source: AutoCarIndia
