Official statements
Mr. Amit Das, Founder & CEO of Electric One, said: The company has plans to invest more than 15 million USD to stabilise the growing market with future technology and virtual dealership modes boosting retail sales for its dealer partners. After streamlining sales efficiency and the supply chains with the right fit of quality batteries, customer satisfaction and after-sales support with complete peace of mind are the key areas to focus.
Mr. Vikas Aggarwal, MD & Founder of Ipower Batteries, said: As EV battery manufacturers, we feel the recent spate of EV vehicles catching fire has a lot to do with raising people’s awareness about the EV segment as a whole too. There are many aspects to EVs than just a vehicle and its battery. People using them need to be aware of on-ground realities for EVs to take off full-fledged in India. The country is warming up to the concept, and we as key players in the industry, need to also ensure a safe transition to EV.
