MegaCabs, a leading airport taxi operator has launched its first fleet of electric vehicles (EVs) in Delhi. This move it says is part of its commitment to sustainable transportation, offering eco-conscious and reliable options to customers. To start with the cab operator will deploy 100 EVs and aims to induct 300 green vehicles by the end of this financial year.
Tarun Arora, CCO-Non-Aero, Delhi International Airport said, “Delhi airport is on a mission to be a net zero carbon emission facility by 2030 and the launch of MegaCabs EV fleet is a significant step in that direction. DIAL has already electrified much of its transportation services and is on schedule to transition to zero-emission vehicles in and around the airport in the next 5-6 years. We have been in conversation with all stakeholders to achieve carbon neutrality at India’s largest airport.”
Kunal Lalani, Founder & Chairman, MegaCab said: “MegaCabs pioneered radio taxi service in India and it is only fitting that we would plunge into the next big change in mobility – electrification. We have distinguished our services by our commitment to fair pricing. Now, our EV fleet is another feature that will set us apart from competitors. We are deploying 100 EVs in the first phase of our transition. This will be gradually increased to 300 by the end of the financial year.”
