Gogoro Inc, a Taiwan-based battery swapping company, announced on Tuesday that it has partnered with Zomato and Kotak Mahindra Prime to promote the rapid adoption of electric mobility in the last-mile transportation segment. According to the agreement, the companies will provide affordable loan terms and battery swapping services to Zomato's last-mile delivery partners.

"In India's cities, the urban transformation to electric transportation has begun, and it is critical that we provide delivery partners with an easy path to own and leverage the benefits that smart electric two-wheeler vehicles and battery swapping offer."

"Gogoro, Zomato, and Kotak are collaborating to make this a reality," said Horace Luke, Founder and CEO of Gogoro.

In the country, Zomato currently has over 3 lakh delivery partners.

"Electric two-wheelers powered by affordable, reliable, and accessible battery swapping solutions can positively impact delivery partner pay-outs, apart from reducing air pollution. That's why we're excited to partner with Gogoro and Kotak on this endeavour," Zomato Food Delivery COO Mohit Sardana stated.

Kotak Mahindra Prime, the vehicle leasing division of Kotak Mahindra Bank, will provide accessible loan terms as part of the tie-up.
