Mumbai: Drivn, an EV leasing platform focused on heavy commercial fleets has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Tata Motors, India\u2019s largest commercial vehicle manufacturer, to explore leasing-based deployment of electric commercial vehicles in India for fleet operators. Under this partnership, Drivn will offer customised leasing solutions for Tata Motors\u2019 electric commercial vehicle portfolio, enabling fleet operators to transition to electric vehicles through simpler and customised financing solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Drivn offers bespoke operating lease solutions tailored to commercial fleet operators. By bridging long-standing gaps across financing, deployment and charging infrastructure, it is helping make the shift to electric simpler and more practical, accelerating fleet electrification across India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tata Motors is leading the commercial mobility transition with the widest electric CV portfolio and an ecosystem that makes electrification both practical and profitable. The company works closely with fleet owners to optimise performance, uptime, charging and financing across the lifecycle. As adoption deepens, Tata Motors remains focused on delivering end-to-end solutions that help customers transition confidently to zero-emission mobility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Rajesh Kaul, Vice President & Business Head \u2013 Trucks, Tata Motors Ltd., said, \u201cTata Motors is committed to democratising clean mobility and accelerating India\u2019s transition towards sustainable transportation. Together with Drivn, we aim to make electric trucks more accessible to our customers. Our electric trucks portfolio has been engineered to deliver performance, reliability and operating economics that meet the evolving needs of our customers, while helping them confidently transition to zero-emission technologies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Manav Bansal, CEO and Co-founder of Drivn, said, \u201cMaking electric fleets commercially viable is key to driving adoption at scale. While there is growing interest from operators, the shift ultimately depends on how practical and accessible these solutions are. Partnering with Tata Motors allows us to combine a strong vehicle portfolio with our leasing model, addressing key barriers such as upfront costs and deployment timelines. Through this partnership, we intend to deploy over 1,000 electric trucks over the next two years, offering fleet operators a clearer and more scalable path to electrification while contributing to the broader growth of the EV ecosystem in India.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Alpna Jain, Co-founder and Chief Business Officer at Drivn, said, \u201cElectric fleet adoption scales when the right ecosystem comes together for support. With Tata Motors\u2019 strong market presence, fleet operators gain trust and access as we are getting the elements of maintenance of vehicles, uptime as a joint commitment from OEM and combining technology to monitor efficiencies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
