Commenting on the partnership with Citroën, Anmol Jaggi, Co-founder & CEO - BluSmart said, “Having a shared vision of achieving net-zero mobility, providing premium, reliable and safe ride experience, Citroën is the ideal partner for BluSmart. With the mission to ‘Decarbonise Mobility at Scale’, we are dedicated to constructing a comprehensive EV mobility ecosystem in India, encompassing the nation's largest all-electric ride-hailing service and an extensive network of EV charging superhubs. As more OEMs embrace eMobility, and our fleet size expands, we are poised to address the burgeoning demand for ride-hailing services in Indian megacities while offering riders a diverse range of advanced EVs."
The 4,000 new Citroën e-C3 all-electric cars will join the existing 7,000 EVs in the BluSmart fleet. BluSmart says its 7,000 EVs have completed over 12.5 million all-electric trips covering over 410 million kms, leading to CO2 savings of around 30 million kg.

BluSmart also owns and operates 4,400 EV chargers across 36 EV charging superhubs spread across Delhi-NCR and Bengaluru, the two cities where the manufacturer has its presence. The company recently entered into a multi-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Tata Power to source eco-friendly green power. The new partnership aims to bring zero tailpipe emissions to BluSmart’s mobility solutions.
