Indian EV manufacturer EKA Mobility (belonging to Pinnacle Mobility Solutions) has achieved a new order from the Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC), in Maharashtra state, for supplying 250 electric buses. The company unveiled its 9-meter e-bus model earlier this year at Prawaas 4.0 expo in Bangalore.

EKA, featuring Japanese Mitsui and Dutch VDL as equity partners, has deployed its e-buses in Delhi as UBER shuttles at the airport and #UBERReads, as well as at Pune International Airport. The brand also has a strategic partnership with Swedish furniture retailer IKEA for supplying electric delivery vans in India. 

EKA Mobility to deliver e-buses in Nagpur

The contract for this service was awarded to Hansa Vahan India Private Limited, formerly known as M/s Hansa Travels, which has partnered with EKA Mobility, the company states. EKA Mobility will manufacture and supply the 12-meter, air-conditioned e-buses to Hansa Travels. Additionally, EKA Mobility will also undertake an annual maintenance contract for the entire duration of the operation. Each bus offers a seating capacity for 41 passengers and a standing capacity for an additional 24 commuters. 

Speaking about the development, Rohit Srivastava, Chief Growth Officer, EKA Mobility said, “This partnership with Nagpur Municipal Corporation marks another critical step towards India’s transition to clean energy mobility. We are thrilled to be a part of Nagpur’s journey toward becoming one of India’s most sustainable cities. This order is also a testament to EKA Mobility’s growing presence and leadership in the electric vehicle market. With a vision to make public transportation more sustainable and accessible, we will continue to provide green mobility solutions to cities across India, helping them meet their clean energy targets.”
