Automaker MG Motor India announced that it partnered with Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd (BPCL) to strengthen its EV charging infrastructure nationwide.

The company said in a statement that this partnership with BPCL will boost EV adoption by expanding travel opportunities between cities as the two companies install EV chargers on highways and within cities.

With BPCL's broad customer reach and operations, and MG's electric vehicle advances, the two companies have combined their expertise to strategically identify charging sites, gather consumer insights, and develop loyalty programs and technology to manage charging systems. 

Arun Kumar Singh, Chairman and Managing Director of BPCL, commented on this initiative, stating that the country is entering an era of massive electrical mobility now and in the future for sustainable consumption.
