Three Breakthrough Innovations in One Package
The P4 charging station isn’t just another fast charger – it’s a complete reimagining of EV infrastructure. Here’s what sets it apart:
| Innovation | Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Wall-Style Design | Ultra-slim 400mm width | Maximizes space efficiency in urban areas |
| Floating Cables | 3-axis suspension system | Weightless feel, automatic retraction |
| Thermal Management | Pre-heating + cooling system | Extended battery life in all climates |
Space Revolution for Urban India
At just 400 mm slim, the P4 runs along the length of a parked vehicle, freeing up valuable space in crowded urban settings. This wall-style design is a game-changer for India’s space-constrained cities where every square meter counts.
Unlike conventional bulky, box-like charging stations, the P4’s sleek profile means more charging points can fit in the same area – crucial for scaling EV infrastructure in dense urban environments.
Engineering Excellence Meets User Experience
Floating Cable Technology: A custom 3-axis suspension mechanism makes cables and connectors effectively weightless, retracting automatically after use. No more struggling with heavy cables or worrying about connector wear.
Built for India’s Conditions: The charger’s robust connector features a full-metal shell with axial seals similar to LPG and CNG guns, designed to remain functional even underwater – perfect for India’s monsoon conditions.
Silent Operation: Optimized airflow design reduces fan noise, making it ideal for residential and commercial areas in cities.
Proven Performance at Scale
The numbers speak for themselves:
| Metric | Achievement |
|---|---|
| Power Output | Up to 40 kW |
| Charging Sessions | 8+ lakh completed |
| EVs Powered | 2,000+ vehicles |
| Green Kilometers | 50+ million km |
| Funding Raised | $44.6 million |
Founded in 2020, Exponent has powered more than 8 lakh rapid charging sessions across 2,000 EVs, enabling over 50 million kilometres of green mobility.
Smart App Integration
The experience doesn’t stop at hardware. The revamped Exponent app offers:
- Real-time charger location and availability
- Seamless monthly-pass billing system
- No manual payments or keycards required
- Accurate charging session tracking
Market Deployment and Partners
The P4 is already being deployed across Indian cities for partners such as Murugappa Group’s Montra Electric and Omega Seiki Mobility, covering both passenger and commercial EVs.
This strategic partnership approach ensures wide-scale adoption across different vehicle segments, from three-wheelers to buses.
Global Recognition
The company, recognised by the World Economic Forum’s 2025 Technology Pioneers list, became the first in India and only the third globally to launch 1 MW rapid charging for buses, demonstrating their commitment to comprehensive EV infrastructure solutions.
What This Means for EV Adoption
As CEO Arun Vinayak explains: “At Exponent Energy, design is not just about aesthetics but about rethinking from first principles to deliver better engineering and economics. This charger embodies our vision of making EV charging as seamless as fuelling.”
The P4 addresses three critical barriers to EV adoption:
- Space constraints in urban areas
- Charging time anxiety with 15-minute rapid charging
- Infrastructure reliability through robust design
