Tork Motors, the Pune based high-performance electric vehicle manufacturer laid the groundwork for their upcoming launch by installing the first unit of their EV fast-charging station at Cafe Peter’s Bund Garden Road outlet in Pune, Maharashtra.
Launching the first charging station, Kapil Shelke, Founder and CEO of TORK Motors said, “With the launch of our first EV charging station, we seek to drive the adoption of e-vehicles and especially electric motorcycles in India. We are excited to unveil the first public fast-charging station in our home city of Pune and consider it to be a step towards creating an easy to discover and accessible TORK Charging Network, reflecting our company’s vision. This move is also in line with our growth plans of offering a holistic and hassle-free experience to the consumer.”
The new EV charging station is in line with the government’s vision to ensure seamless and faster adoption of electric vehicles and is the first of many that the company plans to install in the coming years.
The state-of-the-art stations will incorporate smart EV chargers with secure connectors, to provide a fast charging facility and ensure a seamless payment experience for the users as well.
These chargers are developed in line with the standardized Bharat EV specifications and will have the capability of providing up to 100V battery capacity. In the coming months, the company seeks to create a variety of chargers to its charging network that would easily facilitate e-charging for vehicles that are already present or yet to be launched in the market.
To address this, the company has taken a potent step towards fuelling the growth of electric bikes in India and plans to set up a dense charging network with a variety of chargers to boost compatibility and accessibility for EV users across all cities that Tork Motors plans to operate in.
