Battery Smart, a battery-swapping network start-up for electric vehicles has partnered Zypp Electric, a leading shared electric mobility start-up.

The partners say Battery Smart’s battery-as-a-service model will allow Zypp Electric to lower its CAPEX while scaling operations. The e-two-wheeler users will be able to save time and leverage a well-established network to swap batteries at any location - enabling them to be on the road for longer durations.
Pulkit Khurana, co-founder, Battery Smart said, “Our partnership with Zypp Electric adds a large base of commercial two-wheelers and helps us improve the utilization of our growing network.

The partnership with Battery Smart also allows us to remain asset-light while expanding our fleet numbers further, without incurring a large CAPEX associated with the batteries and stations.”
