Tata Motors, on April 29, unveiled its new Avinya EV concept.

Shailesh Chandra, managing director, Tata Motors PVs, and Passenger Electric Mobility, said that Gen 3 architecture would look at increasing the range and the target is over 500km. The new EV is based on Tata’s new 'Generation 3' platform for pure electric vehicles that would be coming in the future.

"Avinya EV removes the clutter, focuses on minimalism, technology is intuitive and working in the background," Chandra added.

The production-spec vehicles based on the Gen 3 platform will be launched by 2025.
