Olectra enters into electric truck segment

Olectra Greentech Limited (OLECTRA) has successfully begun 6×4 heavy-duty Electric tipper trials recently as part of its initiative to expand its product portfolio into electric truck segment.

Pioneer and market leader in electric bus manufacturing, Olectra now entered into truck manufacturing and this prototype is built on heavy-duty electric tipper platform. The first of its kind truck in India, Olectra tipper, with a 220-km range on a single charge, is built with a heavy-duty bogie suspension tipper capable of managing gradability of more than 25 per cent (scaling slopes on roads with elevation, and ghat roads). The manufacturing will be scaled up in the state-of-the-art facility coming up on the outskirts of Hyderabad soon.
