Beyond manufacturing, this is about building something lasting for the people of Kuppam, real jobs, real infrastructure, and a stake in India's clean mobility future. We're deeply thankful to Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu Garu for his leadership behind the Green City Initiative and for trusting us to be part of that story."

Standard features across the models include front disc brakes, telescopic suspension, mobile app connectivity, an anti-theft lock, a parking assist system and a repair switch.
Gunjan Malhotra, Co-Founder, Komaki Electric Vehicles, said, "The electric two-wheeler market has grown rapidly, but affordability should never come at the cost of quality. With the MG Pro V and MG Pro+, we wanted to offer customers features that have traditionally been associated with more expensive vehicles. These include a strong metal body and safe, long-lasting LiFePO4 batteries with a longer lifespan than those found in many electric two-wheelers and ICE vehicles currently available in the market. This combination inspires confidence among customers. It also reflects our commitment to making premium build quality, dependable performance, and modern technology accessible to a much wider audience. We believe customers deserve products that not only look good but are built to withstand everyday Indian road conditions."
