Hero Electric has announced the rollout of its first batch of electric scooters from Mahindra Group’s Pithampur plant in Madhya Pradesh. Earlier this year, Hero Electric had announced its 5-year partnership with Mahindra as part of its growth and expansion plans.

As part of the strategic alliance, Hero Electric’s Optima & NYX are being manufactured at the plant in Pithampur. Beyond sharing space to build vehicles, the partnership between both would provide a platform for jointly working to develop and share the supply chain for all new electric offerings.

Speaking on the announcement, Sohinder Gill, CEO, Hero Electric said, “The two teams have been working closely for seamless integration of the manufacturing process and offer to the customer the same level of global quality that are produced from our Ludhiana plant. With this tie up, we are now well on our way to the half a million capacity that we had planned few months back.

Both companies will bolster this alliance and share their R&D expertise to develop newer technologies and products for domestic and overseas markets.
