Zelio E-Mobility Expands Manufacturing Capacity with New Coimbatore Plant

Zelio E-Mobility has announced the inauguration of a new manufacturing facility in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, marking another step in expanding its electric two- and three-wheeler business across southern markets. Opened on July 13, 2026, the new plant is located on Trichy Road in Kannampalayam and has been established to support electric scooter assembly, storage, logistics and associated operations. The facility will initially cater to customers in South India while reinforcing the company's broader manufacturing network.

Production Capacity Strengthened Through New Facility

The manufacturing plant spans approximately 39,000 square feet and has an installed production capacity of 60,000 units annually. During its first operational phase, the facility is expected to manufacture around 24,000 to 30,000 electric two-wheelers every year. The investment supports the company's strategy to expand production capabilities while improving operational efficiency and supply readiness for southern markets without changing the technical scope of its existing product portfolio.

Employment and Investment Plans

The new site currently provides employment for 30 direct workers and is expected to recruit more than 100 additional personnel over the coming months. The facility has been established with a capital investment of up to INR 10 million, supporting both manufacturing expansion and operational infrastructure. These additions are intended to strengthen production, warehousing and logistics functions while preparing the company for future demand growth across the region.

Total Manufacturing Network Expansion

With the commissioning of the Coimbatore facility, Zelio E-Mobility has increased its total installed manufacturing capacity from 180,000 units to 240,000 units per year. The new facility complements the company's existing manufacturing locations in Haryana at Ladwa and Patan, along with its plant in Odisha at Cuttack. This expanded manufacturing footprint is expected to improve regional production support and operational reach across multiple parts of India.
