Omega Seiki v/s Kinetic Safar Jumbo - Who is dominating the electric cargo industry? 

Electric vehicles are gradually being adopted as a form of everyday transportation in India and every year Indian commercial vehicle manufacturers launch new battery-powered vehicles in all vehicle segments.

However, we still have a very long journey to cover to see the advanced infrastructure for electric vehicles. Due to the lack of public charging stations and the high prices of electric vehicles, the use of EVs has decreased. Mileage is also one of the top concerns of commercial vehicle buyers as there is the need for long distances and payload when talking about EVs in logistics. So between Omega Seiki and Kinetic Safar Jumbo which is dominating the electric cargo industry? Here is the list of comparisons between the electric vehicles that promise the best decision to buy the perfect EV as per your need.

Omega Seiki

Design: After extensive development and research, OSM RAGE+ and OSM RAGE, electric three-wheelers have been completed, resulting in an elegant and modern cabin, aerodynamic design, and a spacious loading facility. Taking into account some parameters, the three-wheeler solves the problems of vaccine delivery and transportation individually. Battery-powered vehicles can store vaccines at rest for 72 hours at temperatures as low as -20 degrees Celsius. The company has developed several three-wheelers with refrigerators with TransACNR. No vehicles other than RAGE+ and RAGE are available in the market with smart GPS tracking solutions, shortest-track calculators, and cloud-based data collection and analysis.

Specs & Features: If we talk about the technical specifications of the three-wheeler, both come with IP65 certified zero maintenance Lithium-ion Swappable Battery. The aerodynamic design of RAGE+ and RAGE ensures low running costs of Rs 0.5 per km and noiseless drive. Both have a fast-charging system, which means it takes only three to four hours to complete charging. People often worry about the autonomy or range of their EVs, but RAGE+ and RAGE offer 70-80 km on a complete charge which seems a decent range when we talk about an EV. These vehicles are equipped with the latest advanced technologies, including hydraulic braking and regenerative systems. It also provides a support structure for a roll frame for operator safety. A reinforced chassis was added to meet Indian road conditions. It has front and rear wheels with a super strong shock absorber. Equipped with electronic speed, the top speed is 45 kilometers per hour and the payload is 960 GVW. The cooling section can deliver a cooling capacity of 1340 W at 0 degrees Celsius.

Price: Rage+ comes with a price of 3.40 lakh rupees without a carrier and 3.50 lakh with a carrier. The company currently sells vehicles in Delhi and most of South India. However, if you can live outside these places, the company can transport vehicles anywhere in India at your request. The brand's first branch will open in Telangana, followed by showrooms in Visakhapatnam and Vijayawada. In the case of Rage+, you can choose any color among three options: black, blue, and yellow. On the other hand, RAGE comes with only one variant: black.

Kinetic Safar Jumbo

Design: According to the company, the Kinetic Safar Jumbo was designed from the ground up in Kinetic's R&D labs in India, using 100% genuine parts. This electric cargo is classified as L5 and has a payload of 500kg excluding the weight of the cargo box and driver. The lower cargo area is rated at 145 cubic feet, allowing you to fit more packages for your e-commerce needs. The electric cargo is more efficient thanks to an improved independent suspension and hydraulic brakes, reaching a maximum speed of 55 km/h. Kinetic also said Kinetic Engineering has developed a "magic engine" to deliver more power for off-roading. Its dimensions are 3272 mmx1356mmx2276mm with a ground clearance of 295mm.

Specs & Features: The Kinetic Safar Jumbo offers 120 km of autonomy within a single charge and to extend the range it also features an option of replaceable battery technology for a long range. We can fully charge this cargo in three to four hours using the provided standard charger of 2 kW charger, but Kinetic sells an optional fast charger for Rs.20,000, which takes two hours to fully charge the Safar Jumbo. Other special features include an all-metal housing, a CAN-compatible digital cluster with integrated telematics, and three driving modes for optimum performance. It has a BLDC Type Motor Peak Power of 8.1 kW.

Price: It comes under a price range of INR 3.15 lakhs to INR 3.45 lakhs.
