Tata EV Inaugurates 10 MegaChargers; Collaborates With ChargeZone And Statiq

Indian automaker’s electric vehicle division, TATA.ev recently inaugurated its first 10 TATA.ev MegaChargers. In association with ChargeZone and Statiq, the launch of these high-speed chargers follows the commitment made by the company to boost e-mobility in India by more than doubling the number of available charge points to 4,00,000 by 2027.
TATA.ev through its ‘Open Collaboration’ framework has forged partnerships with various Charge Point Operators (CPOs) and Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) while expanding charging infrastructure across hotspots, particularly along highways, to ensure long-distance mobility. An initiative under the framework was to create a TATA.ev MegaCharger network, offering high-speed charging and reliability.
Commenting on the introduction of the first 10 TATA.ev MegaCharger sites, Balaje Rajan, Chief Strategy Officer, Tata Passenger Electric Mobility, and Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles, said, “At a time when EV adoption is on its growth path, ubiquitous and dependable charging infrastructure is the need of the hour. These first 10 TATA.ev MegaCharger sites in key EV corridors of the country are the first tranche of a superfast charging network that we will have across major highways. The TATA.ev MegaCharger network will increasingly connect all major cities across India to remove charging anxiety.”
The 10 MegaChargers have been placed strategically on highways. The Mumbai-Vadodara highway boasts three charging stations located at a range of 150-200 KM on the 500 KM highway, each station is equipped with restrooms and dining facilities. While the flagship 400 kW TATA.ev MegaCharger in Vadodara supports simultaneous charging for up to 6 vehicles, adding up to 150 km of range in 15 minutes, other stations along the corridor support charging speeds of up to 120 kW.
Commenting on the launch, Akshit Bansal, Founder & CEO, Statiq, said, “Our collaboration with TATA.ev is a milestone in building a trusted, nationwide EV charging network. By co-branding with them, we will make EV adoption more accessible and reliable for every Indian, empowering users to easily locate and use charging stations through the iRA.ev & Statiq app.”
The Delhi-Jaipur Highway boasts four Tata.ev Megachargers which were set up in collaboration with Statiq. These stations are spaced at an interval of 60 km along the 270 KM highway. Additionally, each charger offers 120 kW fast charging with dedicated parking bays. There are three Tata.ev Megachargers located at different locations including one on Pune-Nashik highway, one in Udaipur and one in Bengaluru, in collaboration with ChargeZone and Statiq.
Commenting on this electric collaboration, Kartikey Hariyani, Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, ChargeZone said, "Together, ChargeZone and TATA.ev are pushing the boundaries of EV charging in India by focusing on the needs of today’s EV drivers—fast, reliable, and easily accessible solutions. We’re building a seamless EV ecosystem that supports innovative features including auto charge, RFID tap and charge, which meets current demands and future mobility needs.”
