EVRE partners with Mad About Wheels to add 500EV charging stations
Date: 02 Dec 2021
EVRE,
a leading EV charging infrastructure player, announced its association with Mad
About Wheels (MAW), India’s first brand agnostic electric mobility and
automotive solutions and retail services provider through its phygital
platform, to enable EV dealerships across 100+ cities with over 500 EV chargers
to begin.
EVRE
in association with MAW will set-up public EV charging infrastructure at these
100+ locations, benefiting the respective dealer network operators and EV
owners with easy access to quality EV chargers, majorly in tier-II & III
cities.
MAW
shall enable all deployment at its e-retail partners, in association with EVRE,
offering them value-added services with no cost of asset ownership to
them. EVRE will manufacture, establish,
own and operate this EV charging infrastructure. The tariffs for charging EVs will be in
accordance with the electricity tariff in respective locations, and enabled
through the EVRE App available on all app stores.
This
added infrastructure to their existing set-up will help the dealers with
incremental revenue for utilising the chargers as public infrastructure for
walk-ins by EV customers and well as EV fleet owners.
Announcing
this partnership, Amresh Khar, Co-Founder of Mad About Wheels said, “At Mad
About Wheels, our focus is to provide consumer-centric infrastructure to enable
our dealer-partners by providing enhanced experience for our existing and
potential EV-customers, brands in association, new partnership in discussion.
Dealers get the Charging point exclusive and free of investment in these
assets. Partnership with EVRE helps us in completing the loop of providing 360o
services, and to our customers by providing charging touch-points at convenient
last-mile locations as well as drive profitability for our dealer-partners at
the same time. All these quality chargers
are 2W & 3W smart-enabled”.
Commenting
on this unique partnership, Krishna K Jasti, CEO &Co-Founder of EVRE said,
“We at EVRE strive to increase the touch points for EVs with our best-in-class
EV Charging infrastructure and continue to increase our footprint across the
nation. MAW provides us one such
platform that enables us to reach out to the length of breadth of the country,
touching a majority of the districts in our country within a year. This added infrastructure to their existing
set-up will help the dealers with incremental revenue for utilising the
chargers as public infrastructure, as well as utilising the parking spaces for
charging hubs. We are a firm believer
that tier-II & III cities in India will play an important role in pushing
the clean mobility drive and we are fully geared-up to satiate that demand
across the country with our hub model”.
With
the first EV-ready 100+ strong dealer-network, MAW and EVRE aim to start
building the EV ecosystem across the nation.
The implementation will include setting-up 100 charging stations in
first 30 cities by March 2022. EVRE and
MAW will work together to strengthen charging infrastructure across the rest of
the cities support the fast-growing EV adoption across these sub-urban
communities.
