ELECTRIC VANILLA

It has everything that makes a regular EV, but does it stand out amongst everything out there?

Have you ever walked up to an ice cream cart and asked for the plainest example of the stuff? If you did, chances are that you'd be handed something labelled 'vanilla'. You know, the flavour that doesn't provoke a single exciting thought. Vanilla is one of the most labour-intensive and expensive flavouring substances, but somehow it is still overlooked just because people perceive it to be a basic flavour. Much like that, as urban transportation continues to evolve, the market has been flooded with EVs that have various tacky features and otherworldly claims, and we tend to overlook things that come across as basic.

Ampere, the EV company parented by Greaves Electric Mobility, is not a new name in the electric mobility sector. Having products like the Magnus, Zeal, and Primus already in the market, it has had time to work on finetuning the tech and engineering that goes into its latest offering, the Nexus ST. Now, the question is what the manufacturer did with all this technical expertise and how it translates to the Nexus ST.
