26 Aug 2025 CW Team

The new showroom, operated by Arven Motors Pvt Ltd, offers customers a comprehensive buying experience. Visitors can explore the JEM TEZ, interact with trained specialists, and schedule test drives to assess performance under real-world conditions. Personalised sales consultation further ensures a smooth purchase journey.

JEM TEZ is engineered for the evolving needs of urban logistics, offering a certified range of over 300 km, a true range exceeding 190 km, 80kW peak motor power, 23 per cent gradeability, and a payload capacity of 1.05 tonnes. With low operating costs, robust performance, and enhanced reliability, the vehicle is tailored for last-mile delivery, FMCG distribution, and intra-city freight movement.

Hyderabad was chosen strategically, given its role as a logistics hub supported by central location, warehousing infrastructure, e-commerce growth, and state EV adoption policies. The showroom was inaugurated by Vivek Lohia, Managing Director of Jupiter Group, along with G V Suresh Babu, Founder of Arven Motors, and JEM’s leadership team.

Speaking on the launch, Lohia said: “Hyderabad is an ideal market for our next phase of growth, with its strong economy, thriving logistics sector, and supportive state policies. JEM TEZ offers fleet owners and individual buyers a compelling business proposition through its range, payload, cost efficiency, and fast-charging capabilities.”

As part of its long-term strategy, JEM is investing in an integrated EV value chain with partners such as Porter, Pulse Energy, Battwheel, Automovill, and Tapfin. This ecosystem supports charging networks, financing, and after-sales services. The JEM Udaan programme further assures business support for drivers and owners.

With Hyderabad as a launchpad, JEM is strengthening its service network and preparing for deeper penetration across key markets including Ahmedabad, Chennai, Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai, Pune, and Trivandrum.
