The initial deployment will focus on transporting goods from the West to the North of India, with future plans to expand to additional routes covering North to South and West to South corridors.
GreenLine’s LNG fleet will complement Flipkart’s existing efforts, which also include the deployment of electric vehicle trucks to further reduce the carbon footprint of its logistics operations.
Recently, Flipkart also announced that it has achieved 10,000 EVs in its delivery fleet. The integration of LNG and EV vehicles is part of the company’s broader commitment towards minimising greenhouse gas emissions, and creating a cleaner, more sustainable environment.
