This ambitious initiative will target key Indian states, tapping into unique regional demands for commercial electric vehicles (EVs). The goal: to create a robust network of partners who will help drive JEM’s mission to revolutionize sustainable transportation across India.
As JEM gears up for the December 2024 full-scale launch of its flagship vehicle, the Tez, a compact commercial EV designed for last-mile deliveries, this roadshow is crucial for fostering relationships with dealers in markets where electric commercial vehicles are poised for high adoption.

“At Jupiter Electric Mobility, we are driving innovation with a purpose—to empower our dealers and communities to be key contributors in reshaping India’s transportation ecosystem,” said Mr. Vivek Lohia, Managing Director of JEM. “Our approach is holistic, focusing not just on delivering electric vehicles but on fostering long-term partnerships that enable our dealers to offer tailored, sustainable solutions. Through this roadshow, we are building a network that transforms regional logistics, ensuring that the shift to green mobility benefits businesses and consumers alike.”
