SUN Mobility, a leader in sustainable energy solutions, proudly announces the launch of retrofit kits for Tata ACE vehicles, in collaboration with Bluwheelz. This groundbreaking initiative aims to revolutionize the logistics sector by enabling fleet operators to convert their existing Tata ACE internal combustion engines (ICE) or fixed battery vehicles to swappable electric vehicles (EVs) equipped with SUN Mobility’s cutting-edge battery swapping technology.
The launch event, attended by several Tata ACE fleet operators and financers, provided a platform to highlight the numerous benefits of retrofitting their vehicles. The electric Tata ACE, powered by SUN Mobility’s swappable battery technology, offers significant cost savings compared to the purchase of new diesel or CNG vehicles. Fleet operators will save approximately 30% cost per month if they switch from CNG vehicles to retrofit battery swapping EVs and approximately 40% per month if they switch from diesel vehicles.
Fleet operators can now enjoy extended vehicle life, reduced operational costs, and increased uptime as the electric Tata ACE can operate during no-entry hours in the Delhi area, ensuring higher productivity.
Retrofitting not only aligns with the government’s stringent norms mandating the conversion to electric vehicles but also safeguards businesses’ existing operations without the need for substantial investments in new vehicles. This solution allows businesses to stay compliant with regulatory requirements while maintaining sustainability and profitability.
The event also facilitated valuable conversations with fleet operators, offering insights into their perspectives on the transition to electric vehicles.
“We are thrilled to introduce our retrofit kits for Tata ACE vehicles in partnership with Bluwheelz. We will launch this initiative in NCR, followed by other states,” said Anant Badjatya, CEO, SUN Mobility. “This initiative represents a significant step forward in our mission to make electric mobility accessible, affordable, and sustainable for businesses of all sizes.”
“As a logistics company committed to sustainability, we are excited to collaborate with SUN Mobility on this transformative initiative. The retrofit kits offer our fleet operators a practical and cost-effective solution to transition to electric vehicles, significantly reducing our carbon footprint while enhancing operational efficiency,” said Sanjiv Gupta, Founder & Chairman, Bluwheelz.
