GreenCell Mobility's NueGo, an electric tourist bus service, is set to operate on local routes in Tamil Nadu following its registration as the state's first battery-operated passenger vehicle, as mandated by government directives. The Industries department confirmed this development through a social media announcement.

Devndra Chawla, MD and CEO of GreenCell Mobility expressed pride in being the first battery-operated transport vehicle to receive registration, emphasising the role of progressive government policies in fostering a greener and more sustainable transportation future.

NueGo currently serves the Chennai-Tirupati and Chennai-Puducherry routes, with plans for expansion within Tamil Nadu. Positioned as India's inaugural pan-India inter-city electric tourist bus service, NueGo has rapidly established itself as a leading player in sustainable mobility, offering tourists a safer and more environmentally friendly travel option.

These electric buses boast an impressive range of 250 kilometres on a single charge, even with air-conditioning running in traffic conditions. They undergo rigorous safety assessments, including mechanical and electrical inspections.

GreenCell Mobility has received support from Eversource Capital, a climate impact investor, which is an equal joint venture between investment manager Everstone Group and global solar energy projects developer and manager Lightsource bp.
