Sonalika Tractors has announced the launch of India’s first field-ready electric tractor. Dubbed ‘Tiger Electric’, the company informed that this electric tractor has been designed in Europe and developed in-house. The Sonalika Tiger Electric is being retailed at Rs 599,000 (ex-showroom).

“Our promise to every Indian farmer to constantly provide technological evolutions to enhance farm productivity and profitability comes packaged with Tiger Electric, where we have bridged the gap between concept and being field-ready, while keeping pace with global benchmarks in farm mechanisation technology. It is built on the proven tractor platform of Sonalika to guarantee farmer-friendliness and remain easy to use as we progress towards an emission-free, greener tomorrow. Tiger Electric operations are no different than a regular tractor, making it farmer friendly while cutting off the fuel cost. Tiger Electric has the same global technology which is offered to European and American farmers,” said Raman Mittal, executive director, Sonalika Group

He added, “As the world is moving towards environmental- friendly initiatives, electric vehicles across segments are being eagerly looked upon as alternatives to vehicles that run on fossil fuel. Sonalika’s field-ready Tiger Electric tractor is our commitment to accelerate India’s march towards a greener tomorrow and stay in line with Government of India’s ambitious move of introducing EVs by 2030.”

The Tiger Electric tractor, as the company informed, is being manufactured at Sonalika’s World tractor manufacturing plant at Hoshiarpur in Punjab. The plant is said to be powered by automated robots.

The global Electric Commercial Vehicle market size is projected to reach $1,78,560 million by 2026, from $1,10,540 Million in 2020, at a CAGR of 8.3 per cent during 2021-2026. Major factors driving the growth of the Electric Commercial Vehicle Market size are increasing electrification of public transport fleets, stringent government regulations, and advancements in battery pack technologies and electric power trains.

“Asia-Pacific is expected to witness the highest growth during the forecast period. This rapid growth of the region is attributed to the growing need to reduce the level of pollution. Moreover, it is anticipated that South Korea and Japan will invest heavily in the creation of the infrastructure required, such as charging stations, to support market growth,” read a latest research by Valuates Reports.
