- Partnership will aid development of commercial and passenger vehicles
- Contract signed for 400 Tigor EV and additional to be launched vehicles
With the Nexon EV due soon, Tata Motors has made further headlines by partnering with Lithium Urban Technologies. Both companies will explore bespoke models to address requirements of customers who are increasingly looking for tailor-made mobility solutions in the market across passenger, mass transit and freight segments.
As the first milestone, Tata Motors and Lithium have signed a contract for 400 newly launched, Tigor Sedan EV, with an extended range of 213 km, to be supplied by FY20 and deployed across India. The new Tigor Electric Sedan, with an extended range of 213 km, certified by ARAI is available for both fleet and personal segment customers. This vehicle qualifies for a FAME II incentive for eligible commercial customers. It offers an enhanced driving range, low cost of ownership, connectivity, comfort of a sedan and zero emissions.
This partnership plans to additionally induct 100 electric vehicles, which would include cars to be launched in near future, like Nexon EV for corporate leadership transport services. These steps will be pivotal for Lithium to significantly expand its current fleet of 1000 EVs to further consolidate its leadership position as the largest EV based mobility service provider.
