Green Cotton’s e-mobility arm Ampere Vehicles announced on Thursday, August 12 that it has achieved the milestone of a 1lakh EV customer base in over 400 towns.
The company says that it got more reach because of the increased acceptance from B2B and B2C customers and fast-growing channel partners.
Speaking about the achievement, Roy Kurian, COO, E-Mobility Business, Ampere Vehicles, said in an official statement, “We would like to thank all our stakeholders for being part of this enriching and exciting journey of electrifying India and providing smooth and affordable last-mile connectivity. With this significant milestone, we are now getting ready to move millions of daily commuters and livelihood earners through last-mile logistics ahead.”
According to the official statement, the company saw a huge spike in sales due to increasing petrol prices in the country during the pandemic. The company also noted that there was an increase in demand for electric vehicles from smaller towns and cities.
Ampere also stated that it has been investing in technology, talent development, and channel network, and consumer experience through physical and digital modes. Earlier this year, the company announced Rs. 700-Cr investment over a period of 10 years for its new state-of-the-art EV facility in Tamil Nadu’s Ranipet.
In July, Ampere had announced that it had reached 500 touchpoints across India, offering 350 dealerships from Ampere Vehicles and 165 from ELE e-rickshaw segment.
