Notably, the bus incorporates a 50 per cent discount for women, citizens between 65 to 75 years, and a full 100 per cent discount for Amrit senior citizens aged above 75 years.
The recent bold decision to acquire 5150 electric buses signifies a significant step towards sustainable and efficient transportation. The electric buses will operate on various routes, including the Borivali-Thane-Nashik route, reducing travel time and enhancing convenience for passengers.
One of the remarkable features of these electric buses is their quick charging capability. The battery, which provides a range of about 200 km, can be fully charged in just two hours, contributing to a more sustainable and eco-friendly transportation solution.

The initiative aligns with the state government’s efforts to improve connectivity and accessibility, making even seemingly distant places more accessible to travellers.
