MegaCabs began adding EVs to its fleet late last year, starting with 100 units in Delhi. The company hasn’t revealed which models it plans to acquire to expand its EV fleet. Currently, fleet operators in India prefer cars like the Tata Xpress-T EV (taxi variant of the Tata Tigor EV) and the Mahindra e-Verito. Recently, they seem to have started liking the low-cost Citroën ë-C3 as well.

Together with XPulse, we are poised to revolutionize the travel experience, making it not only eco-friendly but also incredibly efficient and enjoyable for our passengers.
