India's USD 15 billion last-mile delivery sector, under pressure from e-commerce growth and urbanisation, is witnessing a green transformation. Jassper Shipping is emerging as a key player in this shift by making electric vehicles the cornerstone of its logistics operations. With 58 EVs already deployed and plans to expand to 150 within six months, the company is building a sustainable delivery network while creating better opportunities for its workforce.

The move comes as India accelerates its EV adoption, with 1.67 million electric vehicles sold in 2023-24, including 3,700 electric buses. Government initiatives like FAME-II's INR 11,500 crore subsidy and INR 800 crore for charging infrastructure further underscore this transition. Jassper's EV-first model delivers triple benefits: reduced carbon emissions, lower operational costs and maintained service excellence.

Unlike traditional logistics firms retrofitting existing fleets, Jassper has built its operations ground-up around electric mobility. The company collaborates with charging infrastructure providers and offers comprehensive EV training to delivery agents. Its unique approach addresses critical industry gaps by providing health/life insurance and competitive pay to gig workers – a rarity in India's logistics sector.

While competing with established players like Delhivery and Ecom Express, Jassper differentiates itself through its ESG-aligned strategy. The company plans to onboard 1,500 delivery partners across Tier 1 and 2 cities, combining environmental responsibility with social impact.

Pushpank Kaushik, CEO & Head of Business Development (Subcontinent, Middle East and Southeast Asia), Jassper Shipping, said, “At Jassper, our electric vehicle (EV) strategy is not just about cutting costs – it’s about driving sustainability and empowering our delivery partners. EVs are a core part of our long-term vision to reduce our carbon footprint, manage fuel cost fluctuations and improve partner profitability through lower operating expenses. As a part of our commitment to inclusive growth and sustainable logistics, we are creating job opportunities by aiming to onboard 1,500 new last-mile delivery partners across India over the next five years. This expansion will enhance our logistics network and help create more sustainable livelihoods. By focusing on efficiency, reach and reliability, we are building a delivery ecosystem that benefits both our partners and our customers.”

Montra Electric, the clean mobility brand of diversified conglomerate Murugappa Group, has launched its 'SUPER CARGO' electric three-wheeler in Bengaluru. The new SUPER CARGO is aimed at the last-mile 3W cargo segment and claims to provide uncompromised range and power to easily navigate any terrain.

The SUPER CARGO boasts a Sturdy Boron Steel Chassis that offers superior strength and durability, along with best uptime in the category. Featuring the longest wheelbase in its category, it provides a spacious driver's cabin and a 6.2-feet load tray for large delivery applications. The 13.8 kWh lithium-ion battery delivers a category-best on-road range of 170 km, while the powerful drivetrain produces 70 Nm torque and 11 kW peak power with 23 percent gradeability. The 1.2-tonne vehicle is engineered to carry all types of loads with ease. The vehicle also features regenerative braking and multiple drive modes for efficiency. On the safety front, the vehicle includes high-performance front disc brakes, hill hold function, reverse assist and provision for seat belts.

There are three cargo body options for the Montra Electric Super Cargo: the 140 cubic foot eCX d, the 170 cubic foot eCX d+ and the tray eCX. Furthermore, two models (Tray eQX and 170 cubic feet eQX d+) include a 15-minute 100 percent Quick Charging option. Super Cargo comes in four colours: Indian Blue, Steel Grey, Stallion Brown and Chilli Red.

Jalaj Gupta, Managing Director, TI Clean Mobility Private Limited, said, "The addition of the Montra Electric SUPER CARGO to our product portfolio marks an exciting new chapter of growth for us in the last-mile delivery segment. While we began our journey in the passenger 3-wheeler space with SUPER AUTO and expanded into first-mile logistics with our RHINO heavy trucks, one segment we always wanted to make a foray is – Cargo for mid and last mile. With EVIATOR, we have already made inroads into the mid-mile segment. And now, with the launch of the SUPER CARGO, we are entering the highly strategic last-mile delivery space. As a Tru-EV brand, our responsibility goes beyond just offering vehicles – it is about enabling a cleaner, efficient future. With this, we are proud to expand our presence across segments and power India’s mobility shift towards sustainability.”

Roy Kurian, Business Head – Last Mile Mobility, Montra Electric, said, “Montra Electric SUPER CARGO is engineered with deep customer insights. It is packaged with unique features, and the 15-minute full charging option is a great benefit for B2B players. The Super Cargo is well-suited for a variety of applications for both fleet operators and individual entrepreneurs. Our expanding dealer network assures uptime across the nation.”

Arun Vinayak, Co-Founder, Exponent Energy, said, “We are excited to partner with Montra Electric. Our 15-minute 100 percent charging solution has been well accepted by the market for its potential to unlock higher asset utilisation, and this strategic partnership with Montra Electric will help us take forward the clean mobility agenda at enhanced scale. We will closely work with the brand to expand our charging network in line with customer requirements across the cities they are present in.”
