Zelio E-Mobility has started production at a new manufacturing facility in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. It continues expanding in the southern part of India. The plant commenced production on July 13, 2026. It is poised to enhance the company’s production capabilities, reduce delivery time, and extend its geographic coverage in the south.

Increased Manufacturing Footprint

The new factory covers about 39,000 square feet and is situated on Trichy Road, Nagiyyaan Thottam, Lakshmi Nagar Kannampalayam, Coimbatore. As per the firm, the factory will be engaged in assembling electric scooters, warehousing, logistics, and other related activities.

With an annual production capacity of 60,000 units, the factory increases the company’s overall manufacturing capacity to 2,40,000 units annually from 1,80,000 units annually. The factory adds a 33% additional production capability.

Concentrate on Southern Markets

According to the company, the Coimbatore unit will cater primarily to Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and South Maharashtra. This helps Zelio have an established presence in an area that is seeing increasing uptake of electric mobility, and one in which logistics is just as important as supply.

During the first phase, the plant is anticipated to manufacture and assemble 24,000 to 30,000 electric two-wheelers every year. The volume of manufacturing will be scaled up slowly as things normalize.

Why Does This Matter?

  • The plant will help speed up deliveries to dealers and end customers in the South.
  • The plant will increase production capacity locally, which could alleviate the burden from existing plants.
  • The plant will enable the firm’s entry into fast-growing EV markets.
  • The plant will provide Zelio greater flexibility in logistics and service.
