This initiative marks a meaningful step forward in accelerating India’s green mobility transition and creating future-ready transport ecosystems.”

The company is transitioning its fleet from internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to green fuel-powered buses. These initiatives align with the company’s vision of making contributions to sustainable transportation in the coming years. Chartered Speed operates a robust fleet of over 1800 buses across Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, and Assam, serving more than 3.5 Lakh passengers daily, supported by a workforce of over 4,800 employees.
