The XPRES-T EV is a very attractive option both for customers and operators.

This partnership will further cement our market position in the fleet segment,” said Shailesh Chandra, MD, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles and Tata Passenger Electric Mobility.
“Uber is committed to bringing sustainable, shared mobility to India, and this partnership with Tata Motors is a major milestone on that journey.

We are committed to doing our part to bring down the barriers to going electric by working with industry partners that are leading the change,” said Mr. Prabhjeet Singh, president, Uber India and South Asia.
