“The latest incentives for electric trucks under the PM E-DRIVE Scheme are a timely and progressive step, introduced under the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and guided by Union Minister for Heavy Industries & Steel Shri H.D. Kumaraswamy. It’s encouraging to see focused support for electric trucks, which play a crucial role in decarbonizing India’s logistics sector.
What makes this scheme particularly impactful is its linkage to the scrappage of older vehicles delivering both environmental and economic benefits. The targeted focus on Delhi NCR also reflects a strong commitment to addressing air quality challenges in one of India’s most affected regions.
At VECV, we fully welcome this forward-looking policy. It not only advances India’s sustainability goals but also offers meaningful financial support to fleet owners ready to adopt zero-emission solutions.”
