The Bengaluru-based retrofitting scooter company ‘Starya Mobility’ was working to launch a cost-effective electric powertrain for the last 4 years and has successfully engineered a 5.5kw patented PMSM Motor & Controller that will convert petrol scooter to pure electric. Currently, the company aims to convert existing petrol scooters to electric, and in the future, it will also help convert light load conventional vehicles into electric.
Electric vehicles(EV) are on-trend and going to rule the automotive industry in the coming years. The internal combustion(IC) engines and fuel tanks will be replaced by electric powertrain and battery respectively. The electric powertrain is the most important part of an EV that generates and delivers power to the vehicle required to move on the road surface.

Starya Mobility is the very first company in India to introduce an indigenously built & ARAI approved electric powertrain:
The company strongly believes that this ARAI approved electric powertrain will be a game-changer in the EV industry by directly impacting the electric vehicle(EV) ecosystem. Indigenously developed and tested to match the Indian roads and sustain the climatic conditions, it is unique of its kind. Apart from selling its patented electric powertrain and offering RTO-approved complete retrofitting service the company is also open to B2B collaborations for its motor and controller supply to boost the EV industry growth worldwide in order to fulfill the industry demands.
“We are the front runner in electric powertrain developed indigenously, till today no other EV company or retrofitting company has launch EV vehicle or powertrain developed purely on indigenous technology and material. They either import the vehicle or the parts and assemble them in India which doesn’t make it cost-effective whereas Starya Mobility’s every component and technology is developed and manufactured in India by networking with local vendors and suppliers, most of them are from the Peenya industrial area of Bengaluru. With the motivation from Atmanirbhar Bharat(self-reliant India), we focused on local vendors and suppliers that helped us to cut costs to develop a cost-effective electric powertrain” co-founder Ravi Kumar said.
The 5.5 KW PMSM motor, 250 A controller unit will be the helping hands for the people looking for adopting EV technology and EV manufacturers who wish to cut down their manufacturing costs. Starya’s electric powertrain is tested and found to be ideal for both two-wheeler and three-wheel vehicles. The robust design and engineering of the ARAI approved powertrain has outperformed on the Indian roads.
For the Indian EV market, the high manufacturing cost is the biggest constraint to selling electric vehicles. Most EV manufacturers are reliant on technology and vehicle parts that are manufactured in foreign countries making it expensive. Starya Mobility is confident that its electric powertrain will solve the problem by making EV technology affordable.
