| Amazon uses the Treo Zor electric vehicle for delivery |
Amazon India announced a partnership with Mahindra Electric to cement its commitment to electric vehicles in the country by using Treo Zor electric vehicles to deliver products in India.
In 2020, Amazon India announced that the Indian delivery fleet will include 10,000 electric vehicles by 2025.
These electric vehicles announced in the "Climate Commitment" signed by Amazon that they will add nearly 100,000 electric vehicles to its global delivery fleet by 2030.
The partnership with Mahindra Electric is an important step for India to advance the electric vehicle industry and achieve its environmental sustainability goals.
The company has deployed nearly 100 Treo Zor three-wheel electric vehicles in seven cities, including New Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Bhopal, Indore, and Lucknow.
Three-wheeled bikes are popular on Indian roads as they are used mainly as taxis.
However, the Trio Zour electric vehicle is designed to carry goods. The car can carry a load of 500 kg, can reach 125 kilometers in less than 4 hours on a single charge, and has a top speed of 50 kilometers per hour. .
While the initial order for 100 Treo Zor tricycles on Amazon does not match the large US investment in 100,000 Rivian electric vehicles, the Treo Zor appears well suited for India's congested road delivery and could expand in the future.
Mahindra Electric launched Treo Zor in October 2020, which provides an advanced, easy-to-charge lithium-ion battery that allows delivery partners to easily transport vehicles to various locations.
The vehicle is designed and developed in India and has the best performance in the industry. Additionally, it features electric traction technology that provides a fatigue-free driving experience, reduces charge and discharge times, and provides the longest wheelbase in the industry. Overall safe and stable.
Amazon clearly sees India, with a population of 1.36 billion, as a great opportunity for growth.
In August of last year, the company opened its largest headquarters yet in Hyderabad and announced in February that it would begin manufacturing fire-resistant televisions in India. This is the first time that the company has manufactured equipment in the country.
