Leading EV company Ather Energy announced that it is in talks with multiple state governments to build an additional factory to meet demand as the uptake of electric two-wheelers somewhat stabilises after major fire disasters last year.
According to Ravneet Phokela, Chief Business Officer (CBO) of Ather Energy, the company is growing manufacturing production and plans to add 1 million units of capacity to its current 400,000 annual capacity.
“To drive faster adoption of EVs, we continue investing in public fast-charging networks
With around 1,000 chargers installed across the country, we already have the largest fast-charging network for two-wheelers in the country, and this number continues to grow,” Phokela said.
Ather Energy, based in Bengaluru, reported sales of 9,187 units in December 2022, a 389% increase (on-year growth).
