So can you travel, out of town, in an Electric Car?
The answer is a resounding YES! You will be surprised at the amount of "out of city" travel being done by the Electric Car community in India. All of this travel was made possible due to PlugInIndia's pioneering efforts regarding community charge points. These charge points were installed outside cities near popular weekend or day trip destinations. And once these points were installed the EV community got their electric cars and enjoyed taking them outside cities! Enjoy the mountain air near Pune's western ghats, Go around Mumbai on a heritage drive, Go to Gujarat from Mumbai, Drive a quiet electric car in a National Park, Venture into the Himalayas, Go on a business drive between Mumbai and Pune, Drive from Delhi to Jaipur in your EV, Escape to the hill station of Mahabaleshwar, Explore Nashik from Mumbai or Pune, Get inspired at Shirdi and many many more! |
RE:CHARGE India Mobile App
The mobile app and the companion website will be the center of managing charge points. Please download the app from following links. The app will help you during your EV travels! Search for the charge points mentioned below in the app! |
