UrDa is a shared, connected and electric platform, which helps cities to reduce pollution, congestion and bring prosperity.

It is a must-solution for every smart city, India is focusing on developing numerous smart cities and we have a right solution for the new age of transportation.”

The company will be introducing its shared mobility services with Ahamani e-scooter which boasts of 250 kgs load capacity, high gradeability and patented IoMT (Internet of Moving Things) system.  Another defining characteristic is that the life cycle of the battery is quite high; this in fact is a breakthrough technology which no other brand is offering.

Ankit Kumar, Director & Chief of Strategy, UrDa Mobility said “India will be our first expansion outside of Taiwan. At UrDa we aim to bring change to the way we commute. We are eyeing the whole of South East Asia in the next 5 years with India playing a very vital role. We aim to put over 100,000 e-scooters on Indian roads in the next few years. This is only possible with a hands-on control over the vehicle quality and after sales. With the immense focus on EV industry by the Modi Government, Ahamani Group is looking forward to localise e-scooters and battery packs in India. We are already in talks with major automobile & ancillary companies to partner on manufacturing of e-scooters and battery packs.”
