The brand will use the electric powertrain in the Omega Seiki Mobility cargo three-wheelers – Rage+ and Rage+ Frost.
Omega Seiki Mobility & Valeo Collaboration
Under the collaboration, Valeo will provide Omega Seiki with powertrain components such as integrated motors, inverters and reducers. The brand will also provide a Powertrain Control Unit for the Rage+ and Rage+ Frost electric three-wheelers. Valeo’s engineers will also provide technology integration support to expedite the entry into the electric vehicle segment.
Omega Seiki Mobility also announced that the brands would further collaborate for upcoming electric vehicle models. These upcoming EVs will aim at the last mile connectivity market in India.

Valeo Powertrains
The French brand also has a joint venture with Siemens eAutomotive and also produces high-voltage electrical systems. The systems greater than 60V are considered high-voltage systems. The brand also offers 48V low voltage systems as well. This versatility helps the brand provide technological systems to both two- and three-wheel urban vehicles, Premium Sedans and SUVs. Valeo produces its electric powertrains in India from its manufacturing facility in Pune, Maharashtra.
Omega Seiki Manufacturing Plant
Omega Seiki Mobility produces its electric vehicles from the manufacturing plant in Faridabad. The brand has already launched its first electric three-wheeler. The three-wheeler aimed at last-mile mobility solutions and commercial applications was introduced in 2020.
