Montra Electric launches First e-SCV Dealership in West Bengal

Montra Electric has opened its first electric small commercial vehicle (e-SCV) dealership in West Bengal, expanding its EVIATOR network as the fleet surpasses 1,000 vehicles across India.

Montra Electric has expanded its electric commercial vehicle network with the inauguration of its first electric small commercial vehicle (e-SCV) dealership in West Bengal. Located in Howrah, Kolkata, the new dealership has been established in partnership with Next Drive Mobility and will provide sales, service and spare parts support for the company’s EVIATOR electric small commercial vehicle range.

The expansion marks Montra Electric’s entry into the West Bengal market as demand for electric last-mile logistics vehicles continues to grow. It also follows a key milestone for the company, with its EVIATOR fleet surpassing 1,000 vehicles on Indian roads, providing valuable operational insights to support future expansion.

Commenting on the development, Saju Nair, CEO – e-SCV, Montra Electric, said, “We’re entering this market from a position of strength as our EVIATOR fleet has just crossed 1,000 vehicles nationally. West Bengal’s commercial fleet continues to rely heavily on diesel compared to many other states, and the electrification of commercial vehicles is still at a relatively early stage. This presents a significant opportunity to accelerate the adoption of electric mobility in the region.”

Montra Electric’s EVIATOR portfolio includes the E350 (32 kWh), E350L (40 kWh) and E350L+ (50 kWh) variants. The electric cargo vehicles offer a 1.7-tonne payload capacity, a 10.3-foot cargo deck, a real-world driving range of more than 200 km, and CCS2 DC fast charging, enabling the battery to be charged from 0 to 80% in approximately 60 minutes.

With its latest dealership, Montra Electric aims to strengthen its presence in eastern India while supporting the transition towards cleaner and more efficient commercial transportation solutions.
