Mahindra-Ola partner for electric vehicle project in Nagpur

Mahindra and Ola have joined hands for the country's first multi-modal electric vehicle project. The said initiative has also been given support by the Government of India, as part of its aim to promote the use of EVs in the country.

Under this project, Ola will add around 200 electric vehicles on its platform, for the first phase. This will include 100 units of the Mahindra e2o Plus, while the remaining line-up will include e-buses, e-cabs, e-rickshaws and e-autos from various manufacturers like Tata Motors, Kinetic, BYD and TVS among others.

Ola has set up an electric charging station at the Nagpur airport and has also installed more than 50 charging points at 4 different locations across the city. The taxi aggregator will also be providing training to drivers regarding maintenance and use of in-car technology, especially in all-electric vehicles.
