The Aehra Sedan Targets Big Range

• Aehra shows the exterior of its second vehicle, the Sedan.
• Shown at the Milano Monza auto show, the Aehra Sedan is scheduled to reach customers in 2026.
• Aehra is targeting 497 miles per charge for its sedan, but that is likely using the generous WLTP test cycle.

It’s like the automobile boom is happening again. The Italian BEV startup Aehra is showing off its sedan at the Milano Monza auto show. While you might not be familiar with the Milano-based BEV startup, this is the second product shown by Aehra and follows a battery-electric crossover. Both the crossover and sedan target high-end BEV buyers with big performance figures and wild styling.

Without disclosing how the company plans to do it, the Aehra sedan is targeting 800 km per charge. That’s likely using the WLTP test cycle and would translate directly to 497 miles per charge. Of course, that target is almost meaningless without the company broadcasting the car’s hardware. Though considering its targeted range, it’s likely the Aehra sedan will sport a battery similar to the Lucid Air, which advertises a 92-kWh power pack for its 410-mile-range variant.

While we don’t know many of the specs of this EV startup’s sedan, we can see its bold styling, with billionaire doors retracting skyward at each opening. The rear doors are hinged at the rear, which could make for an elegant entry into the back seat. With the doors open, we can see there’s seating for four, but there isn’t much more to see of the interior.

Aehra (pronounced eye-AIR-ah) combines the Latin word for “era” and the modern Italian word for “aerodynamic.” The company says it plans to deliver cars by 2026 to the US and European markets, with China and other markets to follow. That ambitious timeline might be tested by the whole manufacturing process, as cars are famously hard to build. Looking at the similarly ambitious Faraday Future, the FF91 production hit some snags along the way since its debut in 2017.

There’s no word where Aehra plans to build its sedan or SUV, but with deliveries slated for just a few years away, it’s likely the company has a factory lined up. Though, time will tell if this BEV startup will churn out these interesting-looking sedans, or if it will evaporate into the ether.
