The company today announced a strategic partnership with Saera Electric Auto, one of the largest auto two-wheeler producers formerly manufacturing for global major – Harley Davidson. Saera’s state-of-the-art facility strategically located in the auto hub of Bawal in Haryana is now set to produce the most disruptive range of the upcoming LML Electric vehicles. The highly advanced and innovative infrastructure of Saera, backed by its historical competence in manufacturing will now be leveraged to develop the much talked about and an anticipated EV range of products from the LML electric stable.

LML intends to build a future-ready manufacturing facility using Saera’s cutting-edge technology and processes.
