Montra Electric, the EV brand of Murugappa Group, and Exponent Energy, an energy-tech startup, have partnered to develop rapid charging electric vehicles in the 3-wheeler segment.
Under the partnership, Exponent Energy will offer a 15-minute Rapid charging option to Montara Electric’s customers, said Sushant Jena, Head, Montra Electric 3W Division.
Additionally, Montra Electric will launch a rapid charging 3W variant that will be equipped with Exponent’s 8.8 kWh e^pack and will achieve a zero to 100% charge in 15 minutes at Exponent’s e^pump charging network while also having the ability to be slow charged at home.
Arun Vinayak, Co-founder & CEO, Exponent Energy, said that 15-minute rapid charging kills charging anxiety and is crucial to delivering uptime and flexibility in operations needed for last-mile mobility.
Like refuelling a diesel vehicle, customers will enjoy the same level of freedom as ICE vehicles while reaping all the advantages of going electric, he added.
