Ahmedabad: India’s leading commercial electric vehicle maker Altigreen on 10th November 2022 inaugurated its brand-new retail experience centre in Ahmedabad. This is the company’s seventh retail dealership in India in a span of 2 months. As per the company, the experience centre will allow EV enthusiasts to access Altigreen’s range of electric cargo vehicles. For the partnership, Altigreen opted to go with Garnet Motors (Green) Pvt. Ltd – one of the most reliable and experienced names in Gujarat. The Altigreen Retail Experience Centre is located in Sarkhej, Ahmedabad.
With the launch of this retail dealership, Altigreen continues its commitment to providing its consumers with an enhanced and never-seen-before experience with world-class and modern infrastructure. Every element of the dealership has been designed to lend a welcoming feel, especially to all those walking in, including autorickshaw drivers, small business owners, and people from all walks of life. Altigreen has left no stone unturned to ensure the dealership reflects the company’s ethos of respect and empathy, and its endeavour to gain the trust of consumers through transparent dialogue.
The Gujarat government, through its EV policy incentives, is one of the leading states in India marching towards the nation’s goal of electrification of mobility. For the uninitiated, the Gujarat government’s policy for EV charging infrastructure provides 25% capital subsidy on equipment/machinery (limited up to Rs. 10 lakhs per station) for the first 250 commercial public EV charging stations for 2 wheelers, 3 wheelers, 4 wheelers. The State Government promises to exempt 100% electricity duty of EV charging stations till 2025. In addition to that, the State Distribution Licensees (DisComs) will allow charging of EVs from the existing connection of a consumer at the existing tariff.
Dr Amitabh Saran, Founder and CEO, Altigreen, said, “With the launch of this new retail experience centre in Ahmedabad, we are steadily building a strong nationwide network to cater to the rising demand for commercial EVs in the country. As a homegrown company, we take great pride in delivering Made in India products. We are investing significantly to strengthen our production and R&D capabilities while developing a robust pan-India distribution network to offer the best and cleanest last-mile transportation. We are happy to partner with Garnet Motors (Green) Pvt. Ltd in Ahmedabad, and deliver world-class products in multiple vehicle categories.”
Speaking on the occasion, Mr Karnail Singh Cheema,Founder – Garnet Motors (Green) Pvt. Ltd, said, “In India, the transport sector accounts for one of the largest proportions of carbon emissions, which many experts believe is accelerating climate change. As we make progress in decarbonising transportation, collectively as a nation, companies such as Altigreen play an important role in this process. Consumers can make a huge contribution to reducing their carbon footprint by transitioning to electric fleet vehicles. We are extremely pleased to have this new retail experience centre in Ahmedabad and we hope that more consumers see the value in making the switch to EV.”
