MG Motor and Tata Power on Wednesday installed Coimbatore’s first 60 kW superfast public electric vehicle (EV) charging station at the MG Dealership.

The initiative is a part of MG’s recent partnership with Tata Power to deploy 50 kW and 60 kW DC Superfast charging stations across the country.

According to a company release, the latest public EV charging station is available to all vehicles compatible with CCS fast-charging standard. MG claims that the ZS EV can be charged up to 80% in 50 minutes at the facility.

Gaurav Gupta, chief commercial officer, MG Motor India, said, “Coimbatore is a key industrial hub of India, as our nation moves towards its green and sustainable future, it calls India’s business leaders and industry veterans to actively participate and drive the much-needed change. We are delighted to launch Coimbatore’s first superfast public charging station at our dealership that will facilitate the same.”

Rajesh Naik, chief, new business services, Tata Power, said, “We are proud and happy to present Coimbatore with its first 60 kW EV charging station in association with MG Motor India. Our endeavour is to build a decent ecosystem for our potential EV customers in the future.”
