The Mahindra-Uber partnership for electric cabs will help curb environmental woes in Delhi and pave the way for an eventual all-EV future. Photo: Aniruddha Chowdhury/MintMumbai: India's only electric car maker, Mahindra and Mahindra Ltd, has entered into a non-exclusive partnership with cab aggregator Uber Technologies Inc. to deploy its electric sedan eVerito and electric hatchback e2o Plus on the Uber platform in New Delhi and Hyderabad, to begin with. The partnership will include sale of Mahindra electric cars at competitive prices, attractive financing and insurance premiums and maintenance packages, the company said in a statement. The dearth of charging infrastructure is causing the delay, he added. New Delhi and Hyderabad were chosen to run the pilot because “they seem to be the most proactive in establishing charging infrastructure”, Goenka said.
