Volektra, with a valuation of $12 million, is raising funds on Wefunder. The company is democratizing sustainable mobility with its magnet-free motor that outperforms magnet-based motors. The Dragon motor of Volektra helps solve supply chain issues and reduces reliance on rare earth minerals and carbon emissions. Volektra has also developed its smart and wireless e-bike kit that can convert any bike into electric in just 15 minutes. Volektra is led by an experienced team and has an order book forecast of $5 million for 2023. Manish Seth founded Volektra in February 2020. The current crowdfunding campaign has a minimum target of $50,000 and a maximum target of $1.24 million. The campaign proceeds will be used for the development and validation of magnet-less motors, technology scale-up in Europe and the US, hiring, and working capital.

Founder Profile

Volektra Founder Manish Seth on Democratizing Sustainable Mobility

Electric vehicles (EVs) are rapidly growing in popularity. EV sales increased 116% from 2020 to 2021. A Reuters analysis revealed that 37 global automakers plan to invest nearly $1.2 trillion in electric vehicles and batteries over the next seven years. And given the worsening effects of climate change, this trend seems likely to continue. 

But simply buying a new electric car is not the only way to go green. There are a number of startups that specialize in converting traditional gas-powered vehicles into smart EVs. Volektra is one of them. Volektra has developed proprietary drivetrain technology that makes it easy to transform a traditional vehicle into an electric one. KingsCrowd sat down with Volektra founder and CEO Manish Seth to learn about the company’s technology, sales strategy, and more.
