Market Insights

Existing EV brands position themselves as premium or luxury brands and thus, the new families of India feel alienated towards them. Furthermore, existing compact EV cars don’t offer the best range in the best price.

Aim

To build a brand that feels familiar to the new Indian families, convey a sense of community and comfort instead of positioning itself as premium.

The Logo comprises of two ‘F’s coming from the name itself. It is constructed to resemble a tree added with rounded edges to feel comforting for the target audience.
