The Indian company has already inaugurated the first two Charge_IN stations in Hoskote on NH 75, Bengaluru – Chennai highway and Murthal on NH44, about 50 km from Delhi. Both the charging stations comprise two ultra-fast chargers capable of charging 4 EVs at once, the company said.
“Electric mobility is about driving a larger shift towards cleaner, sustainable transportation. XEV 9e and BE 6, with their impressive 500 km real-world range, ensure drivers feel confident on long journeys. Meanwhile, with our ultrafast charging network by Charge_IN we will be creating an open and accessible network for all EV users,” Nalinikanth Gollagunta, Chief Executive Officer - Automotive Division, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. and Executive Director, Mahindra Electric Automobile Ltd., said. “Our aim is to make long-distance travel with an electric vehicle effortless and reliable like conventional driving, thereby building customer confidence and accelerating India’s transition to electric mobility.”
Mahindra’s Charge_IN network will exclusively feature 180 kW dual gun chargers designed to deliver faster, more convenient and reliable charging for electric four-wheelers.
The Charge_IN stations will be strategically positioned along major highway corridors. Each station will be co-located with wayside amenities such as restaurants, cafes, making them natural halting points for travellers.
These fast-charging stations will also be accessible to other brands’ electric vehicle users through Charge_IN by Mahindra app, and through other leading aggregator platforms, Mahindra said.
