The company has made solid progress over the last couple of years and has remained sharply focused on developing a proprietary technology backbone. This will now allow RACE to build a superior and differentiated swapping network in the next couple of years.” On the other hand, Shreyas Shibulal, Founder & Director, Micelio Fund said, “RACE has developed one of the most advanced, sophisticated technology to enable swapping of batteries for electric vehicles.
