Commenting on the partnership, Nishchal Chaudhary, Founder, BattRE, said, "Initial buying cost of electric vehicles is high and is currently not driven by use cases. I believe battery swapping infrastructure and BaaS (Battery as a Service) will be useful not just for personal use but will act as an important support system for commercial use cases. BattRE's 380 plus strong dealership network and Bounce's charging infrastructure will prove to be a fruitful synergy for both the companies and bring forth the best value propositions for the customer".
