Delhi-NCR-headquartered electric vehicle maker Omega Seiki Mobility (OSM) has launched Swayamgati Cargo, which it claims is India’s first autonomous electric cargo three-wheeler.

Priced at an introductory INR 415,000, the EV brings self-driving technology to the logistics and industrial mobility sector, making autonomous operations accessible and scalable for Indian enterprises.

Swayamgati Cargo is based on the Swayamgati passenger autonomy platform and is purpose-built for campus logistics, industrial parks, airports, SEZs, manufacturing hubs, gated facilities, e-commerce fulfillment centres and smart cities. Bookings for Swayamgati Cargo open today, with deliveries beginning this quarter.

The new vehicle integrates OSM’s EV drivetrain with an AI-driven autonomy stack featuring Lidar, GPS, multi-sensor navigation, AI-based obstacle detection (up to 6 metres), geofenced route mapping and remote fleet management controls. The vehicle requires pre-mapped routes, customisable for each client’s operational environment.

With a payload capacity optimised for intra-campus logistics and a driving range of up to 120 km, the vehicle is designed to streamline repetitive cargo movement, reduce manual labour dependency and enhance operational efficiency in controlled zones. OSM aims to deploy 1,500 autonomous cargo and passenger units within the next 24 months.

Global industry estimates suggest autonomous logistics and low-speed autonomous mobility are expected to be among the fastest-growing segments in the USD 620 billion autonomous vehicle market projected for 2030.

Dr. Uday Narang, Founder & Chairman, Omega Seiki Mobility, said, “After the successful launch of Swayamgati for passenger applications, Swayamgati Cargo is our next major step toward building India’s autonomous mobility ecosystem. Industrial parks, manufacturing hubs, and logistics facilities today demand precision, efficiency, and 24/7 reliability. Autonomous cargo EVs are the future of structured logistics. With this launch, we are proving once again that advanced autonomy can be designed, engineered, and produced in India – at a cost that makes sense for businesses across the country.”

Vivek Dhawan, Chief Strategy Officer, Omega Seiki Mobility, said, “Swayamgati Cargo brings intelligent logistics to the ground level. From material handling to last-mile campus transport, this vehicle eliminates human error, cuts operating costs, and ensures predictable movement. Our vision is clear: to democratize autonomy for India’s industries. With strong demand coming from airports, factories, and tech campuses, we see Swayamgati Cargo becoming a critical part of India’s smart logistics infrastructure.”

The cargo variant is built on the same autonomy platform that recently completed a successful Phase 1 pilot on a 3 km route with multiple stops, real-time obstacle detection and seamless autonomous navigation. The cargo-focused configuration now begins deployment for structured logistics environments under Phase 2 commercial rollout.

Swayamgati Cargo is engineered specifically for India’s dynamic, high-density industrial and commercial traffic patterns. Its structure, intelligent navigation, and zero-emission drivetrain make it an ideal solution for industrial material movement, airport baggage and cargo handling, intra-campus goods distribution, warehousing and factory-to-factory transfer, e-commerce fulfillment centre mobility, and gated community and tech park logistics.

At present, Omega Seiki Mobility has two manufacturing facility in Faridabad and one in Chakan (Pune). The company’s international assembly plant in Dubai (Jafza) caters to markets across Asia and Africa. A nationwide network of over 200 dealerships and service centres ensures maintenance, spares availability and operational support.
