The e-mobility startup eBikeGO has announced its partnership with Hero Electric. Under the partnership, the two-wheeler manufacturer will supply over 1,000 bikes to transform last-mile deliveries. The first batch of 120 vehicles has been delivered to the startup.

We are happy to partner with serious players like eBikeGO to offer a great experience of a smooth and a pleasurable ride to a discerning customer who cares for the environment and wants an easy, effortless and joyful riding experience. With the introduction of versatile bikes like Nyx with a flexi range, Hero is getting a flurry of interest from different segments of B2B customers, may it be deliveries, rentals or bike-sharing."
