Omega Seiki Launches M1KA 1.0 Electric Truck At Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025

- January 20, 2025
Omega Seiki Pvt Ltd, a leading player in the electric vehicle (EV) industry, has launched the highly anticipated M1KA 1.0 electric truck at the ongoing Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025. The company also displayed the upcoming M1KA 3.0 model and the upgraded All New 2025 Stream City, a next- generation electric passenger vehicle.
The M1KA 1.0 is intended to help India's move to a more sustainable and greener future while also satisfying the expanding needs of the commercial vehicle industry. The M1KA 1.0, which prioritises performance, affordability, and durability, is anticipated to revolutionise the market for companies searching for economical and environmentally responsible transportation options.
The electric truck offers a range of 90, 120 and 170 km/charge with 10.24, 15 and 21 kWh fast charging, respectively. The water-cooled permanent magnet synchronous motor provides a peak torque of 67 Nm for heavy duty applications for this electric truck with high payload capacity of 850 Kg. M1KA 1.0 will soon be available with swappable battery technology. Offering a 5-year or 150,000-Km warranty (whichever is earlier), the truck is priced at INR 699,000 and buyers can now pre-book it for INR 49,999. Deliveries of the electric truck will commence from April 2025.
Uday Narang, Founder and Chairman, Omega Seiki Pvt Ltd, said, “While many electric trucks on the market are equipped with advanced features, the focus in India should be on providing high- volume, cost-effective 1-1.5 tonne trucks. The key to success in this segment lies in offering reliable, efficient and safe vehicles that meet the specific needs of Indian businesses, rather than heavily feature-laden models, making affordability, safety and performance the top priorities. At Omega Seiki, we believe in shaping the future of mobility by creating innovative, sustainable and accessible electric vehicles for every segment of the market. The launch of the M1KA 1.0 marks a significant step forward in the electrification of India's commercial vehicle sector. At the same time, we are excited to introduce the M1KA 3.0 and All New 2025 Stream City, both of which will set new standards in performance, design and sustainability. Our vision is to create a greener and cleaner future, and these launches are just the beginning of our commitment to that vision."
