Electric 3-wheeler company Mahindra Electric Mobility Limited (MEML) partnered with Terrago Logistics, a Delhi-based start-up. Terrago currently has a fleet of 65 Mahindra Treo Zor cargo vehicles deployed with online grocery major, Big Basket in 3 cities and leading logistics major, Porter. With this partnership, in the coming months, Mahindra Electric will supply additional EVs to Terrago for its zero-pollution fleet expansion.
Suman Mishra, CEO, Mahindra Electric Mobility Limited said, “Terrago has been one of the early adopters of our Mahindra Treo Zor electric 3-wheelers. The higher savings and zero tailpipe emission of the Treo Zor make it favorable for companies seeking efficient and sustainable modes of transportation for last-mile delivery. We believe this partnership will not only accelerate our carbon-neutral goals but also lay the foundation for others to adopt electric mobility.” Introduced in 2020, Mahindra Treo Zor 3-wheeler cargo supports a superlative power of 8 kW and high torque of 42 Nm. The Zor can handle up to a payload of 550 kg.
According to the company, it has sold over 18,000 Treo 3-wheelers across the passenger and the cargo segment and has a 73.4% market share in the electric 3-wheeler segment. The Treo is also exported to the UK and Nepal markets, a company release stated. With the Treo Zor, customers can save more than INR 5 Lakh in fuel cost in 5 years, as compared to diesel cargo 3-wheelers, it added.
“We take pride in being one of the pioneers in India in adopting electric 3- wheelers for last mile cargo mobility with Mahindra Treo Zor, and ensure clean mobility for deliveries, thereby positively impacting the pulse of city logistics. Terrago’s association with Mahindra to accelerate electric vehicle penetration, helps fulfil our social responsibility towards the nation of reducing the carbon footprint in the country in our own small way,” commented Mohan Ramaswamy, Co-founder, Terrago Logistics.
