With the launch of its new electric two-wheeler model ‘Defy-22’ under the barnd Ferrato, OPG Mobility—formerly Okaya Mobility, plans to expand its product portfolio to include a diverse range of electric two-wheelers and three-wheelers.
Anshul Gupta, managing director, OPG Mobility said that by emphasizing innovation, sustainability, and customer-centricity, “We aim to redefine the future of mobility in India and beyond.”

He further said while building on Okaya EV’s strong foundation, OPG Mobility symbolizes a unified identity that encompasses both passenger and commercial EVs, emphasizing our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and a greener future.
Gupta said that government policies and incentives are pivotal in driving EV adoption.

Subsidies and tax breaks to reduce upfront costs, expansion of public and private charging stations, supporting innovation in battery technology and EV components, setting emission standards to encourage EV production, and promotion of domestic EV manufacturing and supply chains are the key initiatives which are needed from the government.”
