"With the rise of e-commerce and last-mile deliveries fuelled by the COVID-19 pandemic, it has become imperative for businesses in the delivery segment to consistently innovate, reduce operational costs, and increase efficiency, especially amidst rising fuel prices.

"This year, we are expecting a mass transition of two-wheeler users to electric scooters and this partnership is one step ahead in this direction," Okinawa Autotech founder and Managing Director Jeetender Sharma said.

Welectric founder and CEO Vikas Jain said Okinawa has done extremely well in the B2C market, offering various models of electric two-wheelers that match their petrol counterparts in pick-up and speed.

"With this partnership, corporates would now be able to get comprehensive lease rental solutions on the entire range of Okinawa Electric 2Ws.

"This will make it easier for them to not just procure brand new electric 2Ws on an OPEX model, but also get convenient after-sales services like doorstep maintenance, warranty, insurance claim support and refurbishment or upgrade options," Jain added.

Okinawa said it will train the technicians and engineers of Welectric for maintenance of their product.

The company has currently six electric scooters in its portfolio in the price range of 50,000 to 1.14 lakh, including Li-ion Slow-Speed and Li-ion High-Speed scooters, with an average commuting range of 65 to 140km/charge.
