Amazon eyes global ride aboard Mahindra Electric’s Treo Zor EV

Mumbai/Bengaluru: Amazon.com Inc., through its logistic partners is reportedly in talks with Mahindra Electric to source electric three-wheelers for some of its global operations.

Mahindra Electric has delivered a few test mules of its Treo Zor electric three-wheeler to the e-commerce behemoth’s logistics partners in Japan and Vietnam, a person aware of the development said. Mahindra has also won the largest order for EVs from Amazon India, estimated to be around 1,000 units, the person added.

ET had reported in December last year that Amazon India was close to finalising orders from Mahindra Electric, Kinetic Green, Altigreen, Gayam Motor Works and E-trio. The e-commerce marketplace had also held discussions to invest in various manufacturers.
