During an interaction with Vidushi, Dinesh Arjun, Co-Founder & CEO, Raptee discussed Raptee.HV's mission to revolutionize electric motorcycles with high-voltage technology, emphasizing the company's user-centric design, versatile charging options, robust safety features, ambitious expansion plans, and the role of Series A fundraising in scaling production and innovation.

Can you briefly introduce Raptee.HV and the vision behind developing the first highvoltage motorcycle?

Raptee. HV is an Indian electric motorcycle startup founded in 2019 by Dinesh Arjun, the CEO and former Tesla engineer, along with three other co-founders. Their mission is to accelerate the shift to electric mobility by creating a no-compromise electric motorcycle that provides an exceptional riding experience for users of traditional Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) bikes. Headquartered in Manapakkam, Chennai, Raptee.HV is unique in being the only startup manufacturing highvoltage motorcycles that are fully compatible with all public car charging stations.

As car electrification gained momentum over the past five years, largely driven by the adoption of high-voltage (HV) technology, it became clear that this tech, known for its performance, stability, and reliability, could transform the motorcycle space as well.

Raptee.HV recognized this potential and took the core of HV technology from electric cars, re-engineering it for motorcycles. This breakthrough allows Raptee.HV to deliver consistent, stable performance in terms of speed and acceleration, rivaling or even surpassing traditional fuel-powered motorcycles.
