In a significant push towards sustainable mobility and clean transportation, Thunderplus, a leading electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions provider, has announced a strategic partnership with Tata Motors to deploy 5,000 EV charging stations for small commercial vehicles (SCVs) across tier 2 and tier 3 cities in India.
This ambitious initiative will cover major states including Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Delhi, West Bengal, Bihar, and Maharashtra, focusing on strategically located logistics hubs to support fleet operators. By enhancing charging accessibility, the project aims to boost operational efficiency, reduce downtime, and unlock higher earning potential for commercial vehicle owners, especially in last-mile delivery and urban logistics sectors.
Fast-Charging Infrastructure for India’s Growing EV Fleet
The new charging stations will be equipped with fast-charging capabilities and integrated digital solutions, enabling seamless energy management and quick turnaround for SCVs. This infrastructure expansion aligns with Tata Motors’ vision of electrifying its commercial vehicle portfolio while supporting India’s carbon reduction and electric mobility goals.
