OSM Swayamgati

The OSM Swayamgati is an electric three-wheeled passenger carrier from Omega Seiki Mobility, priced from ₹4.00 Lakh (ex-showroom, New Delhi). It is offered in a single 3 Seater/Electric variant and is a fully built, chassis-with-cabin design with a day cabin. With seating for a driver plus three passengers and a certified range of 120 km per charge, it is aimed squarely at city auto-rickshaw owners and small transport operators who want lower running costs than a petrol auto.

Range and charging

The Swayamgati covers up to 120 km on a full charge under standard driving conditions. Charging is via a standard AC connection, with a full charge taking roughly 4 hours. That is a realistic one-day duty cycle for an urban passenger run, a morning and evening shift comfortably fits inside a single charge, and an overnight top-up at a 16A domestic socket restores it for the next day.

Performance and payload

Power comes from a BLDC motor driving a 3x3 axle configuration, paired with an automatic transmission with 1 forward and 1 reverse gear. With 3 tyres, drum brakes on both ends, and a top speed of around 20 km/h, the Swayamgati is tuned for dense, slow-moving city traffic rather than open-road speed. The fully built passenger body is a Passenger Carrier type, and the driver's cabin includes a driver information display and handlebar steering.

Who should buy it

The Swayamgati suits auto-rickshaw drivers, shared-ride operators and last-mile passenger fleets who operate inside city limits and want predictable per-km costs. Its ₹4.00 Lakh starting price undercuts many petrol autos, and EV running costs cut the daily fuel bill sharply. Battery capacity and payload are not officially published for this variant, so compare those figures with the dealer's quote before deciding. If most of your driving is stop-and-go city work and you have a place to charge overnight, the Swayamgati is a compelling, low-maintenance electric alternative.
