Hero Electric, the largest e-two-wheeler company in India and also the market leader, has partnered Brigade REAP mentored Charzer, a Bengaluru-based EV charging start-up to set up an EV ecosystem across the country. As part of the partnership, Hero Electric and Charzer will set up 100,000 charging stations in a year, further standardising electric vehicle infrastructure between manufacturers.
Charzer will deploy its Kirana Charzer across Hero Electric dealerships to ease charging facility availability for consumers.

EV riders can also use a charging facility in a subscription-based model.

With our vision and commitment to advance the growth of EVs, we are working rigorously to scale up the charging infrastructure. Through this partnership, we aim to strengthen the thrust towards EVs and promote a cleaner and greener mobility solution.”
