Jio-bp, MG Motor, Castrol ink pact to boost e-mobility solutions in India

Mumbai 

Automobile company MG Motor India and lubricants major Castrol India have announced a collaboration with Jio-bp to explore mobility solutions for electric cars. 

Under the partnership, Jio-bp, MG Motor and Castrol would explore setting up four-wheeler EV charging infrastructure and expand Castrol’s existing auto service network to cater to EV customers.

The partnership is aimed at creating EV-friendly roads for inter-city and intra-city travel by setting up a robust EV charging and service infrastructure in the country, the companies said. 

Under the arrangement, Castrol would develop and expand its existing multi-brand auto service network and Express Oil Change centres to serve electric cars. 

These services will be offered across India at both Jio-bp mobility stations as well as select Castrol auto service workshops initially to serve both EV and non-EV four-wheelers, the companies said in a joint statement.

Further, Castrol would help set up EV charging infrastructure across its auto service network.
