Omega Seiki Mobility announced a collaboration with Porter, an intracity logistics company, to deploy 5000+ electric cargo vehicles by 2023 in Porter’s last-mile delivery services across India. The OSM Rage+ EVs will further expand Porter’s fleet to cater to the ever-growing demand for last-mile delivery solutions and to achieve environmental sustainability goals.
Uday Narang, Founder and Chairman, Omega Seiki Mobility, commented on the collaboration, “The higher savings and zero emission of the Rage+ make it favourable for companies seeking proficient and sustainable modes of transportation for last-mile delivery. We are happy that Rage+, a made-in-India electric cargo, will contribute towards Porter’s delivery fleet transformation.”
Uttam Digga, Co-Founder & COO, Porter, said, “There is a heightened sense of curiosity in the market for EVs. We look forward to nurturing this curiosity and bringing our audience a solution that helps them navigate the routes sustainably. We are hopeful that with Omega Seiki Mobility’s expertise in the auto industry, we will be able to encourage the adoption of EVs in the logistics sector.”
Porter strives to act as a catalyst in building a sustainable logistics ecosystem through this collaboration. Currently, the company has over 1000+ EVs as a part of its fleet and plans to expand 5x of EVs by the end of 2023.
Fuelled by the pandemic, the logistics industry is at the cusp of an EV revolution. Consumers worldwide, and certainly in India, have been shopping online in much larger numbers, increasing the demand for eco-friendly and pollution-free last-mile delivery solutions. The collaboration aims at catering to the surging demands for last-mile delivery and building a sustainable logistics ecosystem.
