Upcoming IndiEV Indi One electric car in 2023:- California start-up Independent Electric Vehicles (Indy EV) will soon unveil its first electric car at the New York Auto Show. The Indy One can still be reserved, and production is set to begin in mid-2023.
As mentioned in the reports surrounding the premiere at the New York Auto Show, the Key One EV will be introduced in Europe at a later date. This time the details are not yet known. Currently, the company is slated to start production for the US market in mid-2023. The only thing that is not clear so far is how the company, founded in 2017, plans to manufacture (or build) the cars.
However, very little has been revealed about the upcoming vehicle – even the Indy EV doesn’t list the car’s dimensions on its homepage. So the size can only be estimated from the pictures – that being said, the crossover model is still likely to be in the popular size category of around 4.80m in length. Some observers see a lot of similarities to the Tesla Model Y, and not just because of the curved roof arches.

In fact, Indy EV has collaborated with several partners in development. While according to Autocar, the seats are from Faurecia, and the Indi EV worked with Tata on the air suspension and chassis.
While the dimensions are still unclear, the company is more specific about the drive. There are currently two variants of this electric car planned: a rear-wheel-drive car with an Indy One standard single engine. In fact, this electric car generates 205 kW of power which accelerates the car to 60 mph or 96 km/h in 6.7 seconds. In this version, this electric car is powered by a 75 kWh battery with a range of 370 km – presumably, this is a specification according to the EPA standard, not WLTP.
However, the Indy One Premium is more or less similar to Tesla’s long-range model: with a bigger battery and an all-wheel-drive system. However the power storage comes to 95 kWh, which is considered sufficient for up to 480 km – in either case, no information about cell chemistry is known. All-wheel-drive with the second motor on the front axle producing 349 kW and 730 Nm, the electric car can easily reach a top speed of 96 km/h after 4.25 seconds
The US has given the starting price of this electric car around $ 45,000 or about 41,600 euros. While the premium is listed at $69,000 or 63,800 euros. However, US prices are net; The gross cost of an imported vehicle in Europe, the latter, is unclear. Still going forward, the price of this electric car may increase or decrease in Europe.
However, the overload on the premium model is not only due to the larger battery and extra engine: while it is a more expensive version the electric includes a particularly powerful computer called the ‘Vehicle Integrated Computer’ (VIC). It is an original idea it is supposed to offer one electronic functions which is also available in their own homes or offices. VIC enables Internet surfing, video streaming, and games, or even forms the basis for a mobile office. “We believe that the future of EV technology is being measured more in processing power than horsepower,” says Andre Hudson, Head of Design. Actually, the company is going to give 20+ new features in this electric car, which the company has not yet disclosed.
