Bengaluru-based electric vehicle manufacturer Pravaig Dynamics is set to enter the EV passenger vehicle segment with its premium model Defy later this month. The much-awaited EV, which has been labelled as ‘flagship killer’ by the company, will be unveiled on November 25 with features that are expected to give a tough competition to the premium electric vehicles, Auto HT reported.

However, Defy EV is not the first product from the company. Earlier, Pravaig had showcased its premium electric sedan Extinction MK1 which had claimed to offer a range of over 500 kilometres with a single charge and a top speed of about 200 kilometres per hour. But the sedan did not make it commercially two years after its debut.

The company claims that Defy EV will be able to attain the speed of 100 kilometres per hour in just 4.9 seconds, which is considered to be almost as quick as some of the premium electric vehicles on Indian roads at present.

Talking about features, Pravaig's Defy EV will be equipped with an on-board Wifi, limousine partition, 15-inch desk for laptops, 220V charging sockets and more. It will also have vanity mirrors, premium sound system, USB socket, air quality index with PM 2.5 air filter etc.
