For the Indian market, Delta India currently offers a complete range of EV chargers for 4-wheelers and e-Bus applications. Our wall-mount DC Wallbox EV Charger is a unique product for fast charging and with a small footprint, thus, ideal for commercial applications, such as public parking lots, office buildings, fleets, hotels and shopping malls. Delta also has both single gun and dual charging gun configurations, compatible with all available electric 4-wheelers in today’s market.
