Automobile manufacturer Maruti Suzuki India is planning to build nearly 25,000 EV charging stations ahead of its electric SUV launch
The carmaker is also in talks with oil marketing companies (OMCs) and energy companies to create a charging ecosystem, which has been one of the biggest deterrents to faster adoption of electric mobility in the country
The plan is to have at least one dedicated bay and two charge points at its service centres, and it has already started training service mechanics in Bengaluru
With India aggressively riding the electric mobility wave and players scrambling to grab a pie of the market by setting up charging ports, automobile manufacturer Maruti Suzuki India also joined the bandwagon with plans to build nearly 25,000 EV charging stations ahead of its electric SUV launch.
At the Auto Expo 2023, the company first revealed its plan to bring in a midsize SUV, dubbed as ‘Concept eVX’, to India by next year.
