According to information, the all-wheel drive Vega EVX features two electric motors giving a combined output of 804 hp of power and 760 Nm of torque. The dual-motor setup enables zero to 100 km/h sprint in just 3.1 seconds, and this is achieved despite its weight of 2,090 kg.
Powering the motors is a 55-kWh lithium-ion battery, which is said to provide a range of up to 300 km. The company has said it would offer a more substantial 130-kWh battery from 2021 to enhance the driving range up to 750 km.

The EVX uses advance traction control inverters that use patent pending technology for lightweight, high power density requirements. These are capable of 350 kW of peak power and operate at up 900 volts and 600 amps, with liquid cooling based on pin-fin structure baseplate proprietary technology to reduce cost and enhance longevity.
As for the styling, the front fascia bears good resemblance to the Ferrari 488, while the rest of the body is accentuated by bulging fenders, large side air scoops and a high rump. Other features include LED DRLs, exposed carbon-fiber accents, a large rear diffuser, full-width LED taillights and a pulled-back cabin.
