India's Emerging Mobility Apps Expand Electric and Premium Services

A new wave of Indian urban‑mobility platforms is reshaping city transport beyond traditional ride‑hailing. Gurugram‑based Trev Mobility operates an all‑electric, chauffeur‑driven fleet, has grown to over 100 EVs, completed more than 50,000 rides and secured a ₹3.65 crore community‑funding round. International entrant Green has launched an app‑first electric‑only ride‑hailing service, signalling confidence in India's EV ecosystem. Rapido, originally a bike‑taxi service, now offers a full‑stack app with bike, auto and cab options, emphasizing affordability and technology. Shoffr targets premium, scheduled rides for business travellers with a focus on comfort and punctuality. Namma Yatri adopts an open‑network, driver‑first model that lowers commissions and increases transparency for drivers. Together, these five platforms illustrate a shift toward cleaner, smarter and more diversified urban transportation in India.
