Jupiter and Pickkup Expand EV Logistics With Green Focus

Pickkup, an EV-first logistics company with a strong presence across key NCR cities and tier-2 markets like Mohali and Chandigarh, is advancing its green logistics strategy through a new partnership with Jupiter Electric Mobility (JEM). The collaboration enhances Pickkup’s capabilities in sustainable intercity logistics by expanding its scalable infrastructure of three- and four-wheeler electric commercial vehicles, tailored to corporate, warehouse, and on-demand delivery.

Together, JEM and Pickkup are developing a more efficient, technology-enabled, and environmentally friendly logistics ecosystem. Their joint efforts aim to offer businesses a cleaner, high-performance solution for transport operations, while simultaneously boosting delivery capacity and driver earnings.

Jupiter Electric Mobility reaffirms its commitment to India’s clean mobility agenda through its state-of-the-art EV manufacturing facility in Pithampur, Indore. With an initial annual production capacity of 8,000 to 10,000 electric light commercial vehicles (e-LCVs) and plans for phased expansion, the plant strengthens domestic EV manufacturing and reduces import reliance.

Aligned with the Government of India’s clean transport vision, the collaboration is set to accelerate EV adoption across logistics sectors. The goal is to support national ambitions for reduced carbon emissions, improved energy security, and long-term sustainable development.

Why do pavements fail?

India’s highways continue to expand at a healthy pace. But conversations on the surface quality of highways are growing louder because major deficiencies and black spots continue to be identified, and they are cause for concern.“Road surface roughness causes vehicle vibrations that, in turn, can affect the performance of drivers,” explains Dr V K Gahlot, Road Safety Auditor, Centre for Research and Sustainable Development (CfRSD). “Continuous exposure may induce fatigue, a contributory factor to road accidents. Road surface roughness also affects the vehicle operating cost...
