Speedloop Auto / Global partners

Global partners

Right-sized electric work vehicles, for cities everywhere.

We design, certify and build compact electric vehicles for the 0 to 300 kg loads that move a city: two-wheelers, three-wheelers and special utility vehicles. Designed and built in India, and looking for partners to take them to more markets.

What we make

One family, sized for city work.

  1. Speed

    25 to 60 km/h (16 to 37 mph) across the range.

  2. Range

    40 to 150 km a charge (25 to 93 miles).

  3. Payload

    Up to 300 kg (660 lb), from cargo two-wheelers to three-wheelers and special utility vehicles.

  4. On sale now

    CROC EV, an electric cargo three-wheeler with a lockable box. CROC EV 3 kWh, STIGER EV and MANTIS EV follow in 2027.

How we can work together

Four ways to partner with us.

We agree terms with each partner. Approval in your country follows its own rules, and we plan it together with you.

  1. Distribution

    Import and sell built vehicles in your market, with spares, training and technical support from us.

  2. Local assembly

    Assemble from kits we ship, completely or semi knocked down (CKD or SKD), with our assembly documents and quality checks.

  3. Licensing

    Build on our platforms and designs in your market under licence, with our engineering support.

  4. Joint venture

    Build, certify and sell together, in a market where a shared company makes sense.

Where it works

Built for the work every city has.

  1. Campuses and facilities

    Supplies, linen, tools and waste moved around universities, hospitals, business parks and factories.

  2. Municipal and civic work

    Street-cleaning crews, bin rounds and park upkeep, with the load in a closed box instead of on a hand cart.

  3. Parcel hubs and the last mile

    Parcels too big for a bike and too small for a van, delivered by one rider from a local hub.

  4. Airports, ports and resorts

    Housekeeping, supplies and small cargo moved quietly inside large, closed sites.

Certification

Certified in India, ready to plan for your market.

CROC EV is built on RT100, our reverse-trike platform. RT100 is certified by ARAI, India's national vehicle testing and certification body, and CROC EV registers in India as an e-cart, a registered commercial vehicle.

Approval outside India follows each country's own rules. We plan it with our partner in that market, from the first conversation.

We hold 15 patents on layout, structure and battery, more than 95% of CROC EV's parts are made in India, and we can assemble 250 vehicles a month.
