JSW MG Motor India announced on Wednesday that it has formed a partnership with Shell India to improve public charging infrastructure for EVs across India. JSW MG Motor and Shell have recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). As part of the agreement, MG will incorporate charging networks at Shell’s fuel stations across the country. MG customers will now be able to charge their EVs at Shell fuel stations and use them through the MyMG App.

As per the Memorandum of Understanding, Shell will install CCS 50 kW and 60 kW DC fast chargers at several locations across India. Interestingly, along with providing charging facilities, Shell’s fuel stations are also known for housing holistic stores and cafeterias. This recent move from the companies will make EV fast charging much more accessible for customers.

Previously, Shell teamed up with Tata Motors and Hyundai India to expand the charging infrastructure in India. MG currently offers the ZS EV and the Comet EV in the Indian market. In June 2024, the company retailed 1,861 EVs, marking a 40 percent sales growth in the same month.

Commenting on the recent development, the Director at Shell India Markets Private Limited, Sanjay Varkey, said, “Shell India is committed to enhancing the EV charging experience by offering integrated solutions that prioritize convenience, safety, and sustainability. Our dedication to using 100% certified renewable power combined with our ultra-fast and reliable chargers ensures that our customers enjoy a sustainable, hassle-free, and efficient charging experience. Our strategic partnership with JSW MG Motor India aims to promote the widespread adoption of electric vehicles in the country by leveraging digital integration and customer-centric initiatives.”
