Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) and bp’s fuel and mobility joint venture on Tuesday launched its first Jio-bp branded Mobility Station at Navde, Navi Mumbai, Maharashtra. The existing network of over 1,400 fuel pumps will be rebranded as Jio-bp, presenting a new range of customer value propositions over the coming months.
They will bring together a range of services for consumers on the move – including additivised fuels, EV charging, refreshments & food. In addition, they plan to offer more low carbon solutions over time.
Instead of regular fuels, Jio-bp Mobility Stations across the country will offer additivised fuel at no extra cost.
The fuel offered will contain internationally developed ‘ACTIVE’ technology, which forms a protective layer on critical engine parts to help keep the engines clean. Jio-bp will also set up EV Charging Stations and Battery Swap Stations network at its Mobility Stations and other standalone locations - Mobility Points.
The joint venture aims to become a leading EV charging infrastructure player in India. The heart of the convenience offering is making refreshments available to customers who are on the move through the Wild Bean Café.
The 24x7 shop has India’s largest retailer, Reliance Retail as a partner for daily need items, snacks and confectionery.
Jio-bp will offer a network of Express Oil Change outlets, in partnership with Castrol, at its Mobility Stations, providing free vehicle health check-ups and free oil-change service through professionally trained experts, the company said.
Every 2-wheeler customer buying Castrol lubricant at the Express Oil Change outlets will be able to avail the oil change service at no cost.
To create unmatched customer experience, exciting new value propositions such as dynamic pricing, instant discounts, happy hour schemes, implementation of flexible and uniform digital payment across the network are also in the offing, the company added.
