We are excited to announce our first AutoEVmart store in Bengaluru today. Bengaluru has been at the forefront of technology innovation and has equally played a significant role in adopting and encouraging electric vehicles and setting an example for other cities to move forward with clean mobility solutions, said YVS Vijaykumar, CEO, Greaves Retail.


With 'AutoEVmart', the company brings in a range of EVs in the last mile mobility space, accelerating a clean and better future by embracing new technologies, he said.


The products offered at the store will include e-scooters, e-cycles, e-autos, e-loaders, and e-rickshaws, and retrofitted accessories for both personal and commercial use, the company said.


The store will also provide an extensive after-sales EV care experience, including roadside assistance, easy finance options, comprehensive service packages and e-mobility spares parts, it added.


In future, consumers can choose between numerous options — shopping online with home delivery, shopping online and picking up at a store, shopping at a store and taking merchandise away, or shopping at a store and having it delivered to their home, Greaves said.


These features will be part of the AutoEVmart along with services like battery swapping and a variety of auto-care and detailing products. Vehicle augmentation and beautification will be a key focus area at AutoEVmart, it stated.
