While flagging off the event, Randheer Singh, Director of Electric Mobility and ACC Program at NITI Aayog said, “On World EV Aay, it is important for us at NITI Ayog to support endeavors for the adoption of electric mobility, especially in the last mile logistics. It is also important to be part of events where such adoption is happening on the ground. It gives me immense pleasure to be part of an important event where we have multiple stakeholders coming together to make Delhi NCR emission-free.”

As per the collaboration document, Flipkart will make use of Magenta’s electric cargo fleets, which include the recently released Mahindra Zor Grand and a few other select OEMs, to hasten the adoption of EVs for last-mile logistics.

In keeping with its commitment to the Climate Group’s EV100 project, the electrification of the logistics fleet is a crucial component of Flipkart’s greater sustainability ambition. The partnership supports Flipkart’s aspirations to add more than 25,000 EVs to its supply chain to completely switch to e-mobility by 2030.
