The company is also working on the process of opening up its Max network to cater to EVs from other brands as well in order to help accelerate the country's electrification process for both personal and shared mobility. “Yulu has always thought of mobility and energy together, and hence has focused on building both of these in tandem, right from the start," said Amit Gupta, CEO & Co-founder, Yulu.
Gupta also highlighted that the announcement by Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman in the 2022 Union Budget about framing a policy for battery swapping will be a significant move for the industry. “Yulu hopes to collaborate with (government) to create a policy roadmap that will help accelerate and scale up the infrastructure for EVs and shared mobility in the country," he added.
