A Strategic Partnership for Mass EV Adoption
IndoFast Energy and Quantum Energy have launched a new affordable electric scooter equipped with battery-swapping capability, marking a strategic push toward mass-market EV penetration. The partnership combines Quantum Energy’s expertise in designing and manufacturing electric two-wheelers with IndoFast Energy’s growing energy-as-a-service infrastructure to deliver an accessible, scalable mobility solution for Indian riders. The scooter has been developed to minimise upfront costs while ensuring maximum convenience for daily users.
Battery-Swapping Model Designed for High Uptime
At the core of the new scooter is a battery-swapping system that removes the downtime associated with conventional charging. Instead of waiting for a battery to charge, riders can simply swap a depleted battery for a charged one within minutes. This feature is particularly advantageous for gig workers, delivery fleets, and high-mileage users who require continuous operations. The model also supports predictable operational expenses and lower running costs, making electric mobility more attractive to cost-conscious commuters.
Strengthening India’s EV Infrastructure and Accessibility
The collaboration is expected to expand access to dependable battery-swapping stations across key urban regions. IndoFast Energy aims to broaden its energy network to support seamless availability of charged batteries, while Quantum Energy continues scaling its manufacturing capabilities for broader reach. With price sensitivity still a dominant factor in India’s EV adoption curve, an affordable scooter backed by a reliable swapping ecosystem has the potential to accelerate the shift from petrol-powered vehicles to electric alternatives. The launch aligns with India’s mission to expand clean mobility solutions and reduce urban emissions.
