Montra Electric, a part of the Murugappa Group, has announced the Montra Electric Super League (MSL), an event tailored for auto drivers. Co-powered by Chola Finance, this initiative brings the excitement of the IPL to the streets with 10 dynamic teams, each comprising 17 dedicated Super Auto Riders.
Co-powered by Chola Finance, MSL is a competition featuring 10 teams, each comprising 17 auto drivers, and it aims to debunk common concerns like range anxiety. The MSL encourages participants to drive distances with the help of top-up charging throughout the day.
This unique tournament features 170 Super Riders from across India, including women auto drivers, forming 10 teams that compete to cover the most kilometers. The team that logs the highest mileage emerges victorious, proving that EVs can effortlessly surpass 300 kilometers in a single day.
Aman Sharma, President & Business Head – Vehicle Finance, from Chola Finance said, “Chola is also actively working on innovative financing solutions for customers, in order to make the ownership of a Montra Electric Super Auto easier for them.”
Each kilometre driven by the top 14 riders of each team translates to one run, with additional runs awarded for referrals leading to deliveries or live bookings, and quality customer testimonial videos. Teams advance through a series of matches, with winners determined by total points and runs accumulated, leading to quarter-finals, semi-finals, and the grand finale.
Chola Finance, another distinguished member of the Murugappa Group, has pledged to provide free education for life to the children of up to 68 Super Riders who make it to the final stages of the tournament. This remarkable initiative underscores the tournament’s commitment to uplifting the lives of these hardworking individuals.
The Montra Electric Super League commenced on July 5 and will culminate in a grand finale in the first week of September. The winners will be honoured at a special event at the Montra Electric factory in Chennai.
