In a significant move to accelerate the adoption of electric commercial vehicles, Tata Motors has entered into a strategic partnership with Delta Electronics India and Thunderplus Solutions Pvt Ltd. This collaboration aims to establish 250 new fast-charging stations across the country, expanding the existing network for electric commercial vehicles. These stations will be strategically located in over 50 cities, including key urban hubs like Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru, Pune, and Kochi.
The rising adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) in sectors such as e-commerce, parcel delivery, and courier services for last-mile deliveries highlights the growing demand for efficient and eco-friendly transportation. To support this shift, Tata Motors will leverage its deep understanding of commercial EV movement to recommend optimal locations for the new charging points, including proximity to its dealerships. Delta Electronics will supply advanced charging equipment, while Thunderplus Solutions will handle the installation and operation of the stations.
Commenting on the partnership, Mr. Vinay Pathak, Vice President & Business Head – SCV & PU, Tata Motors Commercial Vehicles, said, “Our goal is to make zero-emission cargo transportation easily accessible. Expanding the fast-charging infrastructure on high-demand routes will not only encourage more businesses to choose electric commercial vehicles but also improve vehicle uptime, resulting in better profitability and a positive impact on the environment. With chargers located at our dealerships, customers can enjoy the convenience of reliable and easily accessible charging services.”
Representing Delta Electronics India, Mr. Niranjan Nayak, Managing Director, shared, “Delta is dedicated to providing cutting-edge, clean, and energy-efficient solutions for a more sustainable future. Our collaboration with Tata Motors and Thunderplus will contribute to the growth of India’s electric cargo ecosystem, and our advanced charging technology will enhance the overall experience for EV users across the nation.”
Mr. Rajeev YSR, CEO of Thunderplus Solutions, expressed his excitement about the partnership, saying, “We are thrilled to collaborate with Tata Motors and Delta on this groundbreaking initiative. Our focus is on delivering top-quality charging solutions for electric commercial vehicles that ensure convenience and reliability.
