Saurav Kumar is the founder and CEO of Euler Motors, a New Delhi commercial-EV maker building electric three- and four-wheelers for India's last-mile logistics. A computer-vision engineer trained at Delhi College of Engineering and Cornell, he worked on driverless-car research at INRIA in France, co-founded Cube26 (acquired by Paytm), then started Euler in 2018 on a contrarian thesis: beat diesel on performance, not just price. His flagship HiLoad EV is pitched as India's most powerful electric three-wheeler, and the company has raised hundreds of millions across rounds led by investors including Hero MotoCorp and British International Investment.
