Uber ties up with Refex Green Mobility to deploy 1,000 electric vehicles by 2026

Kolkata, Mar 12 (UNI) Uber on Wednesday announced a
strategic partnership with Refex Green Mobility to deploy 1,000
electric vehicles (EVs) across key cities in India by 2026, furthering
its efforts to boost electric vehicles on its platform.
This collaboration aligns with Uber’s global objective of providing
100 pc emission-free rides by 2040 and reinforces the ride-hailing
platform’s ongoing efforts to promote clean energy solutions.
The new
fleet of 1,000 EVs will be available on Uber to cater to the growing
preference for sustainable mobility choices in cities.
Refex Green Mobility Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Chennai-headquartered Refex Industries Ltd and it operates under the
brand Refex eVeelz. The deployment will see electric four-wheelers
onboarded onto the Uber platform across Chennai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru,
and Mumbai, marking a significant milestone in Uber’s efforts to
electrify urban mobility.
Commenting on the partnership, Aditya Kapoor, Head, Supply and
Electrification, Uber India and South Asia, said, “Uber is committed
to accelerating the shift to zero-emission mobility in India, and this
partnership with Refex eVeelz is a significant step in that direction.
It strengthens our efforts to electrify urban transportation, bringing
more electric ride options to riders across many new cities in India.
We remain focused on removing barriers to EV adoption and driving the
transition to a greener future through partnerships that will build a
sustainable future for all.”
"As a company committed to driving the transition towards sustainable
mobility, we are proud to partner with Uber to deliver electric
solutions to more cities in India. This collaboration, in addition to
our currently existing B2B as well as B2C operations with nearly 1,300
company-owned 4-wheeler EVs will help us contribute to reducing urban
carbon emissions and will also play a key role in achieving India’s
broader sustainability goals," said Refex Group chief of staff Sachin
Navtosh Jha.
As part of its broader electrification push, Uber rolled out Uber
Green across Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore and Kolkata. Uber Green allows
passengers to request an all-electric, zero tail-pipe emissions
vehicle, providing an on-demand EV experience with a few taps on the
app. Uber Green is already the most widely available on-demand
mobility solution for no or low-emission rides globally, available in
over 100 cities across 15 countries.
With this partnership, Uber and Refex eVeelz are making significant
strides in expanding the availability of electric mobility options in
India, paving the way for a greener and electric urban transportation
ecosystem.
