BluWheelz addresses cost and timeline challenges for e-commerce, quick commerce, and food tech industries while prioritizing environmental impact. Operating in 18 cities with a comprehensive fleet solution covering 2-wheelers, 3-wheelers, and 4-wheelers, BluWheelz distinguishes itself from competitors with plans to integrate 6-wheelers, and to pioneer EV fleet as a service in the country, the company said in a media release.

Its innovative approach, combining cutting-edge technology with a commitment to environmental responsibility, aligns perfectly with our investment philosophy. BluWheelz's impressive growth trajectory, strategic partnerships, and visionary leadership position it as a frontrunner in the rapidly evolving EV market. We are confident in its ability to drive transformative change and look forward to being a part of its success story.”

“In every venture I've embarked upon, from revolutionizing the beverage industry to elevating India's cargo airline sector, the constant has been a relentless pursuit of excellence and a transformative vision. Today, as Bluwheelz secures pivotal funding, we are on the cusp of seizing a greater share of the EV market,” Sanjiv Gupta, founder and Chairman of BluWheelz, said. “This is more than an expansion; it's a commitment to redefine mobility and logistics through sustainability and innovation. We stand at the forefront, ready to steer the electric revolution in logistics, building not just a company, but an ecosystem that propels us towards a future where progress and the planet move forward together.”

BluWheelz's success is driven by its differentiated strategies, including strong partnerships with top vehicle OEMs like Eicher-Volvo and Tata Motors, an innovative low-cost, high-impact franchise model, comprehensive technology integration, and strategic alliances for charging and parking infrastructure. These initiatives underscore BluWheelz's commitment to operational efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability, the release added.
