Montra Electric, India’s full-spectrum electric commercial vehicle brand, signed two Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways (MoRTH) under the Government of India’s Scheme for support to the National Capital Region Planning Board (NCRPB) policy for replacement of old trucks and buses in the National Capital Region. The MoUs with MoRTH were signed by Montra Electric’s eMHCV and eSCV businesses, organised in New Delhi.
This NCRPB policy is designed to facilitate the replacement of ageing, polluting CVs operating in the region. This early adoption of electric CVs aims to improve of air quality through zero vehicular emissions and support India’s broader decarbonisation objectives. Both Montra entities will support eligible fleet operators and customers by offering their solutions, helping accelerate the transition towards cleaner freight movement across the region.
This initiative aligns with Montra Electric’s broader mission of delivering purpose-built electric mobility solutions across commercial vehicle segments. With dedicated product portfolios spanning medium and heavy-duty electric trucks through the Rhino series and small commercial electric trucks through EVIATOR, the company is well positioned to address the evolving needs of fleet operators seeking sustainable transportation solutions.
The Government’s replacement scheme is expected to play a pivotal role in reducing emissions from legacy ICE commercial vehicles operating in one of India’s most polluted regions, while creating a conducive ecosystem for faster adoption of electric trucks.
