This impressive feature sets it apart from competitors in the market, where the average cycle life stands at approximately 1000 cycles. Users of neEV Tez will be able to complete two shifts with the same vehicle, enhancing productivity and earnings.
Solving Efficiency and Operational Issues
Arun Vinayak, CEO of Exponent Energy, expressed excitement about entering the Delhi-NCR region in partnership with Altigreen and Magenta Mobility. He emphasized the operational challenges faced by commercial EVs, including limited productivity and charging anxiety due to long charging times, unreliable networks, and long queues.
