Etrio collaborates with Zypp Electric for last-mile delivery

April 15, 2021 6:56 pm

100 Etrio flagship brand Touro three-wheelers are going to be operational soon and this will scale up to 1000 three-wheelers in the next 6-8 months.

Etrio, one of India’s fastest growing electric vehicle start-up with an aim of electrifying intracity transportation has joined hands with the largest 2-wheeler logistics start up, Zypp Electric to scale up the latter’s last-mile delivery with a three-wheelers fleet.

To start with, Zypp will deploy Etrio’s Touro Mini in Delhi NCR, Noida, Gurugram, Ghaziabad and Faridabad. This will further be bolstered by presence across geographies in India. Etrio will provide end-to-end service support through its dealer network along with a dedicated relationship manager for maximum uptime.

The three-wheeler segment has been the front-runner in India’s all-electric mobility vision by contributing over 70 percent of overall electric vehicle sales. However, the majority of the same has been led by the unorganised e-rickshaw market, with lead-acid batteries, poor build quality, numerous breakdowns, and lack of stability of the product.

Touro saves up to 60-70 percent of the operating costs as compared to a diesel three-wheeler and preventive maintenance of Touro helps fleet operators keep their fleet in good shape. At the same time, human issues such as misuse of vehicles or rash driving patterns can be easily identified, and suitable counter measures can be put in place. The fleet operator is always in complete control of Etrio’s Touro.

Akash Gupta, Co-founder & CEO, Zypp Electric, said “Zypp is a leading and largest two-wheeler logistic brand, boosting last-mile deliveries through its robust fleet and cutting edge technology via App and dashboards to all its partners. Having said that, Zypp wanted to go a step further and do an alliance with a strong OEM in the three-wheeler segment where partnering with Etrio has been a great decision. Etrio being a leading OEM in the three-wheeler segment in recent years, Zypp and Etrio share some great synergies and we are looking forward to scaling this up with both L3 and L5 models to serve the fast-growing last-mile delivery segment.”
