Delhivery has partnered with Tata Motors, Euler Motors and Montra Electric to deploy up to 2,000 electric commercial vehicles over the next 12-18 months. The initial rollout will begin in Delhi-NCR as the logistics company looks to expand its electric fleet and reduce the environmental impact of its delivery operations.
The company has signed Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) with all three electric vehicle manufacturers for deploying 1,500-2,000 four-wheeler electric commercial vehicles across its intra-city logistics network. The move is part of Delhivery's broader plan to increase its electric commercial vehicle fleet to nearly 5,000 units within the next three years.
Delhivery Targets 50% Electric Vehicles in Its Intra-City Fleet
The upcoming deployment will primarily focus on intra-city logistics operations, where vehicles generally travel less than 200 km per day. Electric vehicles are becoming increasingly competitive in this segment compared to diesel vehicles, particularly in terms of total cost of ownership.
Currently, electric vehicles account for around 12-13% of Delhivery's eligible intra-city fleet. The company aims to increase this share to more than 50% over the next two to three years.
Delhivery also plans to fully electrify its fleet of vehicles operating on routes below 200 km within the next four to five years.
The rollout will initially cover different small commercial vehicle categories used for urban deliveries. Over time, the company plans to introduce higher-capacity electric commercial vehicles to handle operations requiring larger payload capacities.
Tata Motors, Euler Motors and Montra Electric to Supply Electric Vehicles
The partnerships will bring electric commercial vehicles from three manufacturers into Delhivery's logistics network. Each manufacturer will support different vehicle requirements.
Tata Motors: The partnership will include the Tata Intra EV for intra-city logistics and delivery operations.
Euler Motors: The company will initially deploy the Turbo City Plus for smaller commercial vehicle applications. Higher-capacity electric vehicles are expected to be introduced later for operations involving heavier payloads.
Montra Electric: The collaboration will focus on expanding the deployment of the EVIATOR electric commercial vehicle across India, building on its existing use within Delhivery's logistics network.
This multi-manufacturer approach will help Delhivery expand its electric fleet across different vehicle categories and meet varying operational and payload requirements.
Delhivery to Develop EV Charging and Parking Infrastructure
Along with purchasing and deploying electric vehicles, Delhivery is investing in infrastructure to make EV adoption easier for its vendor partners. The company is making advance payments to vehicle vendors and developing charging and parking facilities to support the growing electric fleet.
It is also piloting charging infrastructure at its operational locations, starting with Delhi-NCR. These facilities will provide low-cost charging and free parking to vendor partners, helping reduce the overall cost of switching to electric commercial vehicles.
Delhivery is also focusing on network planning and better vehicle utilisation to reduce unnecessary kilometres travelled. These measures, combined with fleet electrification, are expected to help lower emissions and improve the environmental performance of its logistics operations.
Delhivery Highlights Importance of EV Partnerships
Commenting on the development, Prashant Gazipur, Chief Operating Officer, In City Operations, Delhivery, said the partnerships with Tata Motors, Euler Motors and Montra Electric would help the company expand its electric fleet across multiple vehicle categories while maintaining operational efficiency.
He also highlighted that the charging facilities being piloted would help reduce adoption costs for vendor partners and encourage more businesses to shift towards electric commercial vehicles.
