Mahindra & Mahindra And Ola Join Hands For India’s Electric Mobility Revolution In Nagpur

This partnership between these two companies will bring about a transformational change in the automotive and transportation landscape in the country.

Devendra Fadnavis and Nitin Gadkari were present there and inaugurated India's first multi-modal electric vehicle project at the Nagpur Airport Complex.

This unique project will bring vehicles across different segments, including e-buses, e-cabs, e-rickshaws and e-autos together on a single platform, the Ola app, enabling citizens of Nagpur to book these vehicles for their transportation needs.

Speaking on the occasion, Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Devendra Fadnavis said, "The state of Maharashtra is geared towards driving positive change for collective improvement of the society we live in, and we welcome and encourage such initiatives."

This pilot project will commence with a 200-strong fleet, including 100 of Mahindra's new e2o Plus vehicles. The rest of the fleet will consist of vehicles sources from other OEMs including Tata Motors, Kinetic, BYD, TVS amongst others.

Devendra further stated, "We are extremely proud of the commitment corporations like Ola, Mahindra and others are working towards building sustainable transportation for all. In support of this initiative, we have waived off VAT, road tax, and registration for all electric vehicles in the state, and we look forward to building Maharashtra as a model state for others to emulate in the future."
