EV Motors India and Hero Electric partner to push e-vehicles for last-mile delivery ops

EV Motors India, a turnkey electric vehicle (EV) solutions provider, and Hero Electric announced a partnership to support the adoption of EVs for last-mile delivery operations.

Hero Electric’s e-bikes will be integrated with hi-tech batteries from EV Motors India, and these can be charged in less than 30 minutes using the rapid charging station network ‘PlugNgo’ being set up by the latter.

Initially, a pilot of around 10,000 e-bikes will run in a few cities in the next 12 months before the nationwide launch. These solutions are specially designed to meet the requirements and expectations of last-mile delivery operators, including eCommerce, online food, fleet operators, and courier delivery businesses.

The quick charge feature makes daily vehicle operation of 130 km to 140 km stress-free, thereby bringing down maintenance and running costs, while positively impacting business unit economics.
