On Thursday, Gogoro Inc, a leading provider of electric vehicle battery-swapping solutions, revealed a strategic collaboration with Swiggy. This partnership aims to introduce Gogoro’s electric Smartscooters to the last-mile delivery associates of Swiggy, the prominent on-demand convenience delivery platform operating throughout India.
According to Horace Luke, the CEO and Founder of Gogoro, the collaboration between Gogoro and Swiggy will offer riders a smooth transition to eco-friendly electric transportation, enhancing both their environmental impact and business effectiveness.
“Partnering with Swiggy, a leading player in the industry, to provide access to Gogoro Smartscooters and battery swapping is essential in successfully transforming India’s urban fleets to electric,” he added.
Swiggy Head of Operations Mihir Shah said, “This partnership with Gogoro is another key step in our commitment to creating greener and cost-effective solutions for our delivery fleet.”
Shah further said, “Gogoro’s battery swapping technology represents a new generation of electric refueling that has proven successful on a mass scale for last-mile delivery, and we look forward to working with them to transform hyperlocal deliveries to be more sustainable and efficient in India.”
In 2021, Swiggy declared its dedication to accomplish a daily coverage of 800,000 kilometers through electric vehicle deliveries.
Conversely, the Gogoro platform offers a battery swapping system for two-wheelers, allowing delivery operators to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of their fleet management and delivery services.
