Lucknow, Jan 14 (UNI) Ola Electric on Wednesday announced a major expansion of its indigenous 4680 Bharat Cell platform at "Prabharam 2026", marking a key step towards building a unified, India-made energy ecosystem beyond electric mobility.

An Ola Electric spokesperson said opening up the 4680 Bharat Cell platform will enable innovation across sectors, from electric vehicles and drones to advanced technologies, helping build a future-ready energy backbone for India.
