Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M), and Jio-bp, a fuels and mobility joint venture between Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) and bp, are strengthening their existing partnership with Jio-bp setting up charging network for Mahindra’s upcoming e-SUVs launches. Last year, the companies signed an MoU for exploring the creation of EV products and services, alongside identifying synergies in low-carbon and conventional fuels.

According to the official statement: Starting with 16 cities, Jio-bp will install DC fast chargers at the M&M dealership network and workshops across the country. With these chargers being open to the public, the partnership will benefit all stakeholders in the EV value chain.

M&M launched its first all-electric C-segment SUV – the XUV400, at Mahindra Research Valley, Chennai in Sep 2022. The company also unveiled its Born Electric Vision on 15 August 2022, with a range of electric SUVs to be launched in the country in the next few years.

The RIL and bp joint venture is aggressively expanding its Jio-bp pulse branded EV charging network by setting up charging facilities at multiple touch points within cities and major highways.
