Sports utility vehicle (SUV) major Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M) and Reliance BP Mobility Limited (brand Jio-BP) on Tuesday announced the strengthening of their tie-up.
Jio-bp – a fuel and mobility joint venture between Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) and bp – will set up a robust charging network for Mahindra’s upcoming e-SUV launch.
Last year, the companies signed a memorandum of understanding to identify synergies in low-carbon and conventional fuels, as well as explore the creation of EV products and services.
Starting with 16 cities, Jio-bp will install the DC fast charger in the M&M dealership network and workshops across the country.
With these chargers open to the public, this partnership will benefit all stakeholders in the Electric Vehicle (EV) value chain.
Mahindra & Mahindra launched its first all-electric SUV – XUV400 at Mahindra Research Valley, Chennai earlier this month.
The company has also made rapid strides towards electrification by unveiling its Born Electric Vision with a range of world-class electric SUVs to be launched in the country in the next few years.
The group complements the launch of electric vehicles with access to extensive fast-charging infrastructure.
For this, M&M has partnered with Jio-bp to provide EV users with a wide, accessible and convenient fast-charging network.
The RIL and BP joint venture is aggressively expanding its Jio-BP Pulse branded EV charging network.
