Tata Motors, India’s largest electric car maker, has bagged an order to supply 10,000 Xpres-T electric sedans to BluSmart Electric Mobility.
These vehicles are in addition to the 3,500 Xpres T electric vehicle order, which was signed by both the companies in October last year.
While Tata Motors did not share the value of the order, with the Xpres-T price starting at ₹9.6 lakh, rough estimates puts the order value between ₹960- ₹1,000 crore. Launched in July last year, the Xpres-T is a commercial variant of the Tata Tigor EV.
