MetroRide banks on Al power to drive first and last-mile e-mobility

MetroRide has 150 driver partners on board. It provides incentives for women drivers, who account for almost 20 percent of its fleet.

Bangalore-headquartered MetroRide, a year-old artificial intelligence (AI) driven electric mobility platform is gearing up for its next phase of growth. The company runs a fleet of electric three-wheelers on routes linked to metro stations and uses Al-enabled technology to determine these routes.

Girish Nagpal, co-founder and CEO, Metro Ride told Autocar Professional, "We started in 2021 and have survived two waves of Covid. In this journey we have served 300,000 customers till date. We already have a presence in New Delhi, Bangalore and Noida and will expand to Hyderabad. We have around 150 drivers onboard."

The company says its fleet has helped save around 120gms of carbon for every kilometre travelled, which translates to an average of 600gms on every ride. Customers using the tech-driven AI platform travel an average of 4-5km.

The last couple of years has been challenging given the unprecedented Covid-19 pandemic, which saw several well-established and start-ups struggle to stay afloat, and which also had a severe impact on MetroRide.
