Transforming garages into EV-ready hubs
SpareIt – an automotive aftermarket platform that connects neighbourhood garages with distributors and manufacturers to help them source spares – is turning their partner garages ‘EV-ready’ to keep up with the electric vehicle (EV) transition in the country.
In operation since July 2020, SpareIt currently has a network of 6,000 garages across six cities – including Bengaluru, Hubbali, Mysuru, Delhi-NCR. “While we managed to bring about 2,000 garages on-board until March 2021, after the second wave we have seen massive growth,” said Romi Chugh, co-founder of SpareIt.
In the last month alone, SpareIt has turned 50 garages, in Bangalore and Delhi, EV-ready. Contributing to the EV sector in the country, the company has tied up with original equipment manufacturers (OEM) to turn some of their partner garages into EV service hubs.
