Hero Electric has partnered with ElectricPe, an EV charging network, to install charging stations for its customers across India to address this demand. Hero Electric riders will be able to use ElectricPe's charging network as part of the partnership. The business recently committed to installing 1,00,000 charging points by the end of the year.
A robust charging network is vital for the burgeoning EV industry for speedier adoption of EVs across the segment, Sohinder Gill, CEO of Hero Electric, said of the agreement.
