Drivn, BillionE Mobility partner to deploy 200 electric trucks

Drivn, an electric vehicle leasing platform for heavy commercial fleets, has partnered with BillionE Mobility to lease and deploy 200 electric trucks as part of an electric freight deployment programme in India.

In the first phase, 22 electric trucks will be deployed for a cement industry customer under a long-term contract. The deployment will include an electrified freight corridor supported by charging infrastructure and operational services.

Alpna Jain, Co-founder and Chief Business Officer at Drivn, said “Electric trucks scale only when the right ecosystem is in place. Reliable charging infrastructure, alignment across partners, and disciplined on-ground execution are all critical to making large-scale deployments successful. Through our partnership with BillionE Mobility, we are focused on ensuring high vehicle uptime, operational consistency, and efficiency across every trip. This deployment demonstrates that EV freight is not just about replacing diesel trucks, but about building a logistics model that delivers both environmental and operational benefits.”

Kartikey Hariyani, Founder, and Sanjeev Kulkarni, CEO of BillionE Mobility, said “At BillionE Mobility, we’re not just imagining the future of mobility – we’re building it. Electrifying India’s freight sector is a collaborative effort. By partnering with Drivn, we are combining technology, operations, and financing to remove key barriers to EV adoption. Together, we look forward to helping customers transition to cleaner, more efficient logistics.

According to the companies, the deployment is expected to reduce more than 4,500 tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually compared to internal combustion engine (ICE) trucks. The companies said the partnership will continue with additional phases of electric truck deployment. They plan to expand deployments under the agreement to support the adoption of electric freight transport for long-haul operations.
