Hero Electric joined hands with Turtle Mobility in order to strengthen the last-mile delivery segment. Having said that, India’s no.1 EV brand plans to deliver over 1000 scooters by the end of 2022.
As per the Government, there will be a complete switch of the delivery fleet used by the e-commerce and last-mile mobility solution providers to electric. The aim behind this switch is to reduce emissions. Moving on, Hero Electric has partnered with numerous B2B startups in order to supply electric scooters. Talking about Turtle Mobility, it is a startup that offers last-mile delivery connectivity solutions to e-commerce and grocery companies. The brand was incorporated in the second quarter of 2021 with an aim to develop the electric vehicle ecosystem in the mid and last-mile delivery segment.
“At Hero, we constantly strive to quicken the pace of transition to electric mobility and push forward the same through B2B partnerships to strengthen the EV ecosystem across India. This partnership is another step to boost the rapidly growing logistics and delivery industry and steer our commitment to carbon-free mobility by electrifying the segment. Hero's 2Ws are flexible, modular, and versatile, offering longer mileage and a low cost of ownership. It further fulfills consumer needs of last-mile delivery offered by Turtle Mobility," as commented by Sohinder Gill, CEO, Hero Electric.
Hero Electric, on the other hand, has been associated with Turtle Mobility since July 2021. It has delivered 100 NYX scooters. Moreover, the brand is looking forward to converting 35% of sales from the B2B segment in the next four years.
“The use of EV High-Speed Scooters has become increasingly favorable in states for their multiple benefits including low carbon footprint, ease of access, low operational costs as well as cost optimization for last-mile deliveries. It is only a matter of time for EV High-Speed scooters to become widely relevant in India across E-commerce companies for last-mile deliveries. It will also help us to generate work opportunities for self-employed individuals in the informal sector by offering them a more affordable and easily accessible alternative to ICE vehicles,” as commented by Kapil Gupta, Founder & Director, Turtle Mobility.
