Revolutionizing Last Mile Mobility: BLive Launches Innovative BLive EZY EV Rental Program
Bangalore, 11th June 2024 – BLive, a prominent e-mobility platform, has unveiled its groundbreaking BLive EZY EV Rental Program. Tailored for last-mile mobility partners, this initiative aims to address the financial barriers delivery riders face when switching to electric vehicles (EVs).
BLive is leading the charge in electrifying last-mile mobility through fleet operators. Its AI-enabled platform integrates the entire EV ecosystem, encompassing EV manufacturers, demand generation partners like Zomato and Swiggy, top finance and charging solution providers, and the expanding gig worker community. By enabling fleet operators to become franchisee partners, BLive facilitates the creation, deployment, and management of fleets through comprehensive fleet management solutions, fostering the adoption of sustainable transportation.
The BLive EZY EV Rental Program tackles the financial hurdles delivery riders encounter, especially the requirement for a high CIBIL score for loan approvals. With competitive rates and flexible terms, this program makes transitioning to EVs more accessible. Rentals start at just Rs 1500 per week, allowing delivery partners to seamlessly integrate EVs into their operations.
Innovative “Rent to Own” Model
A recent survey by Bangalore-based Robas Research Pvt. Ltd. revealed that 77% of last-mile delivery riders already own EVs, showing a strong preference for sustainable transportation. However, financial challenges such as complex loan processing and high interest rates remain. To address these, BLive has introduced the “Rent to Own” option. This feature allows riders to own their EVs after a 36-month rental period, promoting long-term sustainability and encouraging widespread adoption of green transportation.
“The BLive EZY EV Rental Program makes electric vehicles more accessible, offering a cost-effective and hassle-free way for riders to own their EVs. This initiative will empower riders and significantly reduce urban carbon emissions,” said Samarth Kholkar, Founder of BLive.
High-Quality EVs from Renowned Brands
The program offers premium EVs from top brands like TVS, Ather, Bounce, and Revolt on flexible rental terms. The rent-to-own model allows delivery agents to eventually own these high-quality EVs, underscoring BLive’s commitment to sustainable mobility.
Key Benefits for Riders:
- Substantial Savings: Save up to 90% on fuel costs.
- No Extra Costs: Zero additional costs for insurance and maintenance.
- Ownership at the End: Own the EV at the end of the tenure.
Expansion and Future Plans
The BLive EZY EV Rental Program is already operational in five cities: Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, and Goa, with over 200 EVs deployed to last-mile delivery riders. BLive plans to deploy 10,000 EVs in the next 12 months and is actively seeking more franchisee partners to join their mission to electrify last-mile mobility.
This program is set to significantly accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles nationwide, making last-mile delivery more efficient and affordable.
