Vazirani Ekonk Breaks Boundaries as India’s Electric Supercar Marvel
Silent Thunder - In an era where automotive innovation is accelerating at lightning speed, electric supercars are emerging not just as an alternative but as a bold redefinition of performance and design. These futuristic machines are no longer confined to the laboratories of European and American manufacturers. From the heart of India, a new contender is making waves — a car that dares to defy convention, challenge engineering norms, and command global attention with its cutting-edge design. Meet the Vazirani Ekonk, a striking leap forward from a country not traditionally known for its supercar pedigree.

The Vazirani Ekonk is more than just a follow-up to the brand’s first ambitious creation, the turbine-powered Shul unveiled in 2018. This time, the innovation comes in the form of a pure electric hypercar that aims to rewrite the rules of efficiency, power, and purity in automotive performance. Created by Chunky Vazirani, the mind behind the original Shul, the Ekonk stands as a bold symbol of what the Indian automotive industry is capable of achieving when tradition and technology are blended with visionary ambition.

Unlike the Shul, which impressed the world with its unconventional turbine-based propulsion, the Ekonkditches fossil fuels entirely in favor of a 100% electric drivetrain. But this isn't just another EV with a big battery and fast acceleration. The Ekonk introduces something never seen before: DiCo technology. Inspired by biomimicry — the study of how living beings regulate body temperature — and fused with ancient Indian techniques, DiCo enables direct air-cooling of batteries. This eliminates the need for traditional liquid cooling, a method even giants like Tesla still rely on.

What’s the benefit? Everything. DiCo makes the Ekonklighter, faster, and more efficient. By shedding unnecessary weight, the car achieves an astonishingly low total weight of just 738 kilograms. This gives it a remarkable 1:1 power-to-weight ratio — thanks to its 722 horsepower output — putting it in the same rarefied league as the Koenigsegg One:1. It’s a feat that not only challenges traditional engineering logic but also cements the Ekonkas the lightest electric car in the world today.

Speed, of course, is part of the thrill. The Ekonk rockets from 0 to 62 mph in just 2.5 seconds, reaching a top speed of 192 mph. But it's not just brute force and straight-line pace that defines this machine. The aerodynamic design, featuring shrouded rear wheels and ultra-smooth body lines, gives the Ekonk one of the lowest drag coefficients in its class. That sleek silhouette isn’t just for show — it’s one of the key reasons this car performs like a bullet on the track.

However, what truly sets the Ekonk apart is its raw, unfiltered driving experience. Chunky Vazirani insists on a mechanical purity that most modern supercars have lost. No electronic driving aids. No unnecessary filters between the driver, the motors, and the wheels. It’s an electric car that feels alive — visceral, connected, and real. In many ways, it’s as analog as digital driving gets.

Even its name carries weight. "Ekonk" is drawn from Indian scripture, meaning "the first light." For Vazirani Automotive, it's more than a poetic label — it marks a symbolic new beginning. According to its creator, the Ekonk represents the company’s first true fusion of design and innovation, the first car that feels like it's breathing, pulsing with life.

Though it remains in its development stage, with official technical specs still under wraps, the Ekonk has already undergone testing at India's premier NATRAX facility. All signs suggest this is no mere prototype or vaporware concept. It’s real, it’s being built, and it’s aimed squarely at the global elite of electric performance vehicles. | Osfbp5Uhjsc |
From a market long overlooked in the world of high-performance engineering, the Vazirani Ekonk emerges as a thrilling new chapter. It challenges the notion that innovation is reserved for the established names in the West. With its blend of lightweight design, groundbreaking cooling technology, and pure driving spirit, the Ekonk is more than just India’s second supercar — it's a declaration that the future of speed is open to everyone bold enough to rewrite the rules. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | VAZIRANI AUTOMOTIVE | OBSCURESUPERCAR ON X | TOPGEAR | ID.MOTOR1 ]
