Hyderabad Becomes the Starting Point for Jupiter Electric Mobility’s Push into Electric Logistics

By opening its first showroom in the city and introducing the JEM TEZ eLCV, Vivek Lohia, Gaurav Jalota, and Kartik Hajela position the company at the heart of India’s fast-changing urban freight market

As India’s urban centres move toward greener supply chains, Hyderabad has emerged as an early hub for electric logistics. That context shaped Jupiter Electric Mobility (JEM)’s decision to open its first retail showroom in the city, where it unveiled the JEM TEZ electric light commercial vehicle (eLCV) as a flagship offering.
The launch was attended by Vivek Lohia of Jupiter Wagons Group, along with Gaurav Jalota, CEO of JEM, and Kartik Hajela, Co-founder and Executive Director of JEM. The leadership stressed that Hyderabad is not only a strategic location for vehicle deployment but also a testbed for how electric mobility can transform intra-city freight.

Known for its expanding warehousing network and growing ecosystem of logistics startups, Hyderabad has become a proving ground for last-mile solutions. The city’s government has also been active in pushing EV adoption through incentives and infrastructure projects, making it an attractive market for companies like JEM.
The TEZ, now on display at the Hyderabad showroom, is positioned as a workhorse for businesses in e-commerce, FMCG, and local distribution. Certified with a range of more than 300 kilometres on a single charge and a payload capacity of 1.05 tons, it is designed to replace conventional small diesel trucks in congested city routes.

While those numbers matter, the company’s leaders emphasised that the real focus is on total cost of ownership – promising lower running costs, reduced emissions, and compliance with tightening urban transport rules.
Speaking at the event, Vivek Lohia framed the Hyderabad opening as part of a broader effort by the Jupiter Wagons Group to align mobility with sustainability. Gaurav Jalota added that the company is keen to support businesses transitioning their fleets, while Kartik Hajela highlighted the importance of designing electric vehicles that are rugged enough for Indian operating conditions.

The Hyderabad facility is expected to function as a centre for customer engagement, technical support, and fleet partnerships. For JEM, this means not just selling vehicles but creating confidence in electric logistics solutions among transport operators.
With India’s logistics sector growing rapidly and pressure mounting to reduce emissions, JEM’s choice of Hyderabad signals its intent to be part of the next phase of mobility. For the city, the entry of another EV-focused player reinforces its status as a gateway market for clean transportation solutions.
