The world’s largest manufacturer of motorcycles and scooters Hero MotoCorp and a ‘Maharatna’ and a Fortune Global 500 Company Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL) have collaborated to set up charging infrastructure for two-wheeled electric vehicles (EVs) across the country.
The two mega entities will first establish a substantial charging infrastructure at the existing nationwide energy station network and subsequently may broaden the collaboration to develop more synergies within the EV ecosystem and adjacent business verticals, thereby enabling prospects throughout the customer life cycle. First the charging stations will be setup across nine cities starting with Delhi and Bengaluru. The entire user charging experience will be controlled by a Hero MotoCorp Mobile-App and will be a cashless transaction model.
The Chairman and CEO of Hero MotoCorp Dr. Pawan Munjal said, “The partnership will be beneficial for both the EV segment and customers. This collaboration will also unlock opportunities for asset allocation and expansion in the future.”
