The Blade Battery provides 30 percent more energy storage, enabling these buses to travel up to 500 kilometres on a single charge. Its compact and lightweight design improves space efficiency and vehicle stability.
With a lifespan of over 5,000 charge cycles, it is a durable and reliable choice for electric vehicles.
While speaking at the launch event of Blade Battery platform, Olectra’s Chairman & Managing Director - Mr. K.V. Pradeep said “From our humble beginning with an order for just 6 Electric buses to our latest milestone of 5,150 Electric buses, the growth has been nothing short of extraordinary. The challenges are many, but we at Olectra are committed to taking them head-on with innovation, collaboration, and determination.”
The Blade Battery is just the beginning. We are constantly exploring new ways to improve, innovate, and push the boundaries of what is possible in the electric mobility industry. Our focus continues on increasing our manufacturing and enhancing our technology capabilities.
“While extending his sincere thanks to all our business partners, vendors, and shareholders who have been with us on this incredible journey, we will continue to build a future that’s cleaner, greener, and more sustainable,” he said.
Olectra’s buses are designed with advanced features to enhance passenger comfort and safety. These include fully digital instrument panels, Electronic Hydraulic Power Steering (EHPS), real-time Vehicle Tracking Systems (VTS), and Reverse Park Assist Systems (RPAS).
Passenger safety and comfort are at the core of Olectra’s design philosophy, it said the features such as Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), GPS tracking, and CCTV cameras ensure robust safety measures. Air suspension and kneeling mechanisms offer smooth rides and easy boarding for everyone, including specially-abled passengers.
Wheelchair ramps and inclusive designs make these buses accessible to all.
With over 2,200 electric vehicles (as on 30th September, 2024) operating across India, these buses have travelled more than 30 crore kilometres, reducing CO2 emissions by over 2.7 lakh tons, the company claimed..
By replacing diesel buses with electric ones, Olectra has saved about 10 crore litres of diesel.
One of Olectra’s greatest achievements is securing the world’s largest electric bus order for 5,150 buses from MSRTC, Maharashtra. Additionally, its electric tippers are revolutionising industries like construction, roadwork, and mining by providing noise-free and pollution-free alternatives.
Olectra’s buses are operational in 10 states and 1 union territory, offering eco-friendly travel solutions to millions of passengers. These buses are manufactured at the state-of-the-art facility in Hyderabad (Telangana) equipped with advanced technology and strict quality standards.
