It is also talking to original equipment manufacturer (OEM) partners and electric vehicle innovators globally to bring vehicles on the road in a planned and phased manner.

The project includes electric cabs, electric auto rickshaws, electric buses, rooftop solar installations, charging stations, and battery swapping experiments.This was inaugurated by Devendra Fadnavis, Chief Minister of Maharashtra and Nitin Gadkari, Union Minister of Road Transport, Highways & Shipping, in the presence of key dignitaries and thousands of citizens in Nagpur.The electric vehicle Electric Instant Water Heater Faucet program in Nagpur has provided Ola with significant insights into effectively managing vehicles, batteries, and operations.With the addition of 10,000 vehicles across three cities this year, Ola is quickly set to become one of the largest electronic vehicle fleet operators in the world.Bengaluru: Taxi aggregator Ola on Monday announced its "Mission: Electric", with a commitment to place 10,000 e-rickshaws and electric auto-rickshaws in its service in the next 12 months.Ola plans to continue its experimentation with ways to optimise batteries and charging, to develop a strong business model for electric vehicle deployment in the country.The company is also in discussion with several state governments to create an appropriate policy environment to deploy electric three-wheelers.Building on the pioneering electric vehicle pilot by the company in Nagpur, Ola believes electrification can improve outcomes for drivers, customers, and its business model.From cycle rickshaws to shuttles and last-mile transport, three-wheelers continue to be a dominant form of daily transit for many people across the nation.
