South Asia's first fully-electric supercar Vega EVX, designed and manufactured in Sri Lanka, was officially unveiled yesterday (3) at the Geneva International Motor Show 2020 in Switzerland.
However, the Geneva Motor Show did not go as usual due to concerns surrounding the coronavirus outbreak, but it did not hinder car enthusiasts from launching their latest products.
“In 2013 and early 2014 when we put this team together we wanted to focus on building cutting edge technology for the electric supercar market and bring the technology to Geneva. Now that we are here we feel that this is a massive accomplishment for us even with the disruption of the coronavirus that has affected this event. We stand by with the organizers of this event as we also stand with the people for safety and health,” Dr. Beshan Kulapala , Director and co-founder of Vega Innovations said.
VEGA, the flagship electric supercar is the first of its kind built in Sri Lanka, designed and developed by Vega Innovations, a subsidiary of CodeGen International Ltd. This will be the first-ever vehicle in history, entirely designed and engineered in Sri Lanka to be showcased at a premier international motor show.
This all-electric Supercar is powered by a dual-motor all-wheel-drive drivetrain delivering 804HP and 720NM of torque. With a 40kWh battery-pack, recent test drives confirm a staggering 0 to 100 kmph acceleration in 3.1 seconds, an estimated range of 250 kilometres and a top speed of 240 kmph denotes the overall performance of the Vega EVX Supercar. This two-seater Supercar showcases advanced multidisciplinary technology applications and a skilfully fabricated lightweight carbon fiber body.
