Magenta Power, a Navi Mumbai-based renewable energy solutions provider, has installed an EV charging station in Bangalore that is claimed to be exclusively for the newly launched Mahindra Treo. It has entered into a partnership with Mahindra and Mahindra to exclusively cater to the electric three wheelers.

Magenta has reported that the charging stations shall be equipped with the ChargeGrid App which will show the availability of chargers along the route, coupled with their status at an individual socket level. It will also detect chargers within 500 meters with the help of EO fencing algorithms. With this development, Magenta aims to make the ‘driving and charging’ experience better for the owners of electric vehicles.

Speaking on the occasion, Maxson Lewis, managing director – Magenta Power says, “We are extremely proud of our latest launch as we are entering a new city. Our expansion and acquisition plans will unitedly help us bring about the much-awaited EV revolution in the country. We are delighted to join hands with Mahindra (for Treo vehicles) for an exclusive partnership as it will help people to shift to EV for a better tomorrow.”

He further adds, “With an interconnected network of accessible charging stations and 24/7 assistance, this development by Magenta and the launch by Mahindra will revolutionise the EV industry.”
