EV rental and mobility platform Bijliride has announced plans to deploy 5,000 additional electric two-wheelers across key Indian cities as it scales up operations to cater to rising demand from corporate customers, quick-commerce companies and last-mile delivery service providers.
The expansion will strengthen the company’s presence in Hyderabad, Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Pune, while enabling faster fleet deployment for enterprise customers seeking sustainable mobility solutions.
The company said the rollout comes amid growing demand for electric mobility in the logistics and delivery ecosystem, where businesses are increasingly looking for cost-efficient and environmentally friendly transportation options.
Focus on enterprise mobility
With the expanded fleet, Bijliride aims to provide corporate clients, hyperlocal delivery companies and quick-commerce platforms with readily deployable, legally compliant electric vehicles that can help improve last-mile delivery efficiency.
The company said higher vehicle availability will help reduce logistics bottlenecks while improving fleet uptime through its 24×7 support network.
The move is also expected to strengthen Bijliride’s enterprise mobility business by offering customers a technology-enabled fleet management platform without the burden of vehicle ownership and maintenance.
Relief for gig workers
The company said the expansion will also benefit gig workers and delivery partners who continue to grapple with rising fuel prices and vehicle maintenance costs.
Through Bijliride’s zero-commission rental model, delivery executives are able to retain their full earnings while reducing operating expenses by using electric vehicles supported by the company’s battery-swapping network.
The company believes the model can improve income potential for delivery riders by lowering daily running costs and reducing downtime.
Building sustainable mobility ecosystem
Bijliride Founder and Chief Executive Officer Shivam Sisodiya said the expansion is aimed at strengthening operational capabilities rather than merely increasing fleet size.
“This expansion is about building dependable utility rather than simply chasing fleet numbers. We are focusing heavily on markets like Hyderabad, our operational headquarters, and other major metros where the structural demand for sustainable, cost-effective mobility is highest,” he said.
He added that increasing vehicle density would reduce waiting time for customers, lower operating costs for delivery partners and provide enterprise clients with a technology-backed platform for efficient fleet deployment.
Franchise-led expansion
To support the larger fleet, Bijliride is expanding through an asset-light franchise model by partnering with local entrepreneurs to establish regional mobility hubs.
The company is also strengthening its backend infrastructure across operational cities by expanding pickup centres, charging facilities, battery-swapping services and on-road maintenance support to maximise vehicle availability.
Founded in 2021, Bijliride operates a SaaS-powered electric two-wheeler rental platform and currently manages a fleet of more than 4,000 EVs across major Indian cities. The company serves both individual consumers and enterprise customers through connected fleet management solutions, round-the-clock battery swapping and maintenance services.
Bijliride has set a long-term goal of enabling sustainable mobility for one million users by 2030 through its technology-driven and franchise-led expansion strategy.
