Lohia, a key player in electric mobility, has launched the Narain iCH L3 Cargo, designed specifically for urban delivery operations. The new electric three-wheeler aims to provide efficient and sustainable transportation for businesses operating in cities.
The Narain iCH L3 Cargo features a practical design with a front profile and dual halogen headlamps for enhanced visibility. It comes with a cargo box measuring 1350 x 990 x 1130 mm, making it suitable for transporting a range of goods in urban settings.
Powered by a 5.3 kWh battery, the vehicle has a top speed of 23.5 km/h and offers a range of 90 to 100 kilometres on a single charge. It can be fully recharged in four hours, helping businesses reduce downtime. The vehicle's Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) is 660 kilograms, and its dual-action hydraulic telescopic front suspension and rear leaf spring suspension ensure a smoother ride across various road conditions.
For safety, the Narain iCH L3 Cargo is equipped with drum brakes on both the front and rear, and a 7-degree gradeability enables it to handle slopes efficiently. A digital instrument cluster provides real-time operational data to the driver.
The vehicle has already attracted interest from e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, Porter, and BigBasket, which see its potential for improving urban delivery services.
CEO Ayush Lohia said, "The surge in e-commerce has created a real need for smart, efficient delivery solutions that can handle the demands of urban environments. Companies like Amazon, Porter, and BigBasket are driving this shift, seeking vehicles that can navigate city streets efficiently while supporting their commitment to sustainability. The Narain iCH L3 Cargo is designed with these needs in mind—blending practical features with a bold design to meet the growing demand for reliable, eco-friendly urban transport. We are excited to see how it will help businesses enhance their delivery operations and contribute to greener cities.”
