New Delhi: Amazon India and TVS Motor Company have joined hands to strengthen the flow of electricity in the country, the companies said in a joint statement on Wednesday.

As part of the partnership, an electric two-wheeler and three-wheeler from TVS Motor will be sent to the last mile of Amazon.

In addition, the two companies will work together to explore EV use cases across Amazon’s various business groups for network and logistics needs, the report said.

In order to test the solutions, the two companies will pilot TVS Motor’s electric vehicle solutions on a partnership basis and deliver services across India.

“TVS Motor is now ready with electric two-wheeler and three-wheeler product options for B2B (business to business) and connected service ecosystem and single ownership.

“We are delighted to partner with Amazon India, which marks a major milestone in our journey, and contributes to our shared goal of electrifying their mobility services,” said TVS Motor Company’s Senior Vice President Future Mobility Manu Saxena.

Director of Amazon India-Customer Fulfillment, Supply Chain and Global Specialty Fulfillment, Abhinav Singh said the partnership represents another positive step for the company to achieve its goal of becoming net-zero carbon by 2040.

“Electrification is an important part of our business operations and we are committed to transforming our transportation network to serve our customers more sustainably,” he added.

The partnership strengthens Amazon India’s delivery network by adding electric two- and three-wheelers to the existing fleet, Singh said.

“This will support our supply chain in reducing the environmental impact of our operations and contribute to Amazon India’s goal of importing 10,000 EVs into our fleet by 2025,” he added.

In 2020, Amazon India announced that it will include 10,000 EVs in its delivery fleet by 2025.
