Altigreen Launches neEV Tez, the World’s Fastest Charging 3-Wheeler, in Kolkata
Kolkata, 21st September 2023 – Altigreen, India’s premier commercial electric vehicle manufacturer, unveiled the neEV Tez, the world’s fastest charging 3-wheeler, at a grand event hosted at the Kolkata Press Club. The neEV Tez boasts a unique 3-in-one connector, enabling users to select from Normal, Fast, and Superfast charging options. Remarkably, it requires just 15 minutes for a full charge at an e^pump, up to 1 hour at the Bharat DCOO1 charging station, or 3.5 hours for regular charging with a standard 220V/16A power socket. Furthermore, the vehicle comes with a 5-year standard warranty.
The launch event also served as a momentous occasion as Altigreen delivered 20 neEV Tez vehicles to the cargo aggregator, Platinum Trucking, destined for use in Amazon Fresh last-mile deliveries. Platinum Trucking aims to maximize asset utilization, increase efficiency, and reduce operational costs by choosing the reliable neEV Tez.
Key figures present at the event included Mr. Debashis Mitra, Director – Sales, Service & Marketing at Altigreen, and Mr. Rishab, Managing Partner of Platinum Trucking.
Mr. Mitra remarked, “Altigreen neEV Tez perfectly aligns with the growing trend of electrification in the last-mile sector. Its rapid charging capabilities, coupled with flexible Smart Flexi-charging options, make it ideal for logistics companies seeking efficient, eco-friendly fleet solutions. By adopting EVs, these companies can significantly cut operational expenses, improve fleet utilization, and earn carbon credits for zero emissions. In other cities, neEV Tez already operates up to 20 hours a day for logistics.”
Mr. Rishab, Managing Partner of Platinum Trucking, expressed his satisfaction with the partnership, saying, “We are thrilled to introduce the neEV Tez to our cargo fleet. EVs are rapidly becoming the preferred choice across various applications, and we are proud to play a vital role in driving EV adoption in India. Embracing transformative measures that align logistics with environmental sustainability is the way forward for greener and more resilient cities.”
The Altigreen neEV Tez, powered by Exponent, addresses efficiency and operational challenges faced by last-mile delivery aggregators. It offers rapid 1-hour charging on the DC001 network and a quick 15-minute full charge at e^pump, far surpassing the industry’s typical 3.5-hour charging time. The vehicle and battery include an impressive 3000-cycle life warranty with 100% rapid charging, compared to the industry average of ~1000 cycles. This advancement allows customers to complete two shifts with the same vehicle, boosting productivity and profitability. Furthermore, the public e^pump network eliminates the need for charging hubs, further enhancing profits for customers.
