FlixBus Launches Electric Buses in India

Why this is here: The Vijayawada-Visakhapatnam corridor sees consistent passenger demand year-round, making it a key route for this initial electric bus deployment.

Green Drive Mobility and FlixBus begin electric intercity bus service in India along the Vijayawada-Visakhapatnam corridor in Andhra Pradesh. The companies will initially deploy four electric buses on this busy route connecting two major hubs.

FlixBus contributes its technology platform and ticketing network to the partnership. Green Drive Mobility provides the electric fleet and related infrastructure. Passengers can book tickets digitally through the FlixBus app and experience modern amenities.

Green Drive Mobility intends to expand these electric bus operations to more routes throughout South India. The partnership acknowledges the need for sustainable transport options in a rapidly growing market. Future plans do not specify timelines or funding for this expansion.
