This collaboration will enable customers to buy and list the Mahindra e2oPlus on ZAP, Zoomcar’s fractional car ownership programme. How does ZAP work? One can purchase and register a car on Zoomcar’s self-drive platform, list it as available whenever idle, get bookings from Zoomcar’s customer base and earn money. Individuals will get 75 per cent of the revenue generated from each booking. The extra money made, helps in offsetting the monthly cost of ownership. Mahindra e2oPlus is the first electric car to be included in such a partnership.
Through this programme, buyers can save up to Rs 15,000 per month. To start with, the Mahindra e2oPlus, on Zoomcar’s ZAP platform, will be available in Bengaluru, Delhi and Pune, and will soon be launched in other cities under Zoomcar’s operational network.
