Bounce Infinity has announced a strategic partnership with Greaves Retail, to provide battery swapping stations for Greaves Electric Vehicles. Greaves Retail is the first company to join the Bounce Infinity battery-swapping network as a result of this partnership. Bengaluru has been chosen as the project's test city by the company.
With this strategic partnership, the company wants to target 10 cities throughout the country, each with 300 Battery Swap stations, to help Greaves Retail improve last-mile connectivity. Additionally, the battery swapping service will be available for both electric 2-wheelers (Ampere) and 3-wheelers (B2B & B2C segments). Customers could soon have access to all popular Ampere models via BAAS.

Greaves Retail plans to expand the EV ecosystem with a wide range of brands that provide smart mobility commuting options, as well as better access to consumers' sales and service, according to the firm.

The Bounce Infinity switching stations function in the same way as a petrol station does. Greaves Retail customers will be able to exchange over their nearly-empty batteries with charged and ready-to-go batteries at the stations in a matter of minutes. EV users would no longer have to wait for their 2-Wheelers and 3-Wheelers to charge, be concerned about range, or remember to charge them with this infrastructure in place.
