The partnership, formalized through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), will see XiCon lease 7,500 electric scooters from Wardwizard to enhance last-mile delivery solutions, marking XiCon’s entry into the electric mobility space and expanding its footprint across power, telecom, and infrastructure sectors.
As part of the agreement, XiCon will lease the Wolf+ electric scooter model for the 2025-26 and 2026-27 financial years. The deployment will begin in key metropolitan cities such as Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Delhi, and Pune, with plans to scale to other regions as the operations grow. The MoU outlines a comprehensive plan for the deployment, operation, and maintenance of the electric scooters, with a focus on improving delivery efficiency and promoting eco-friendly transportation solutions. The initiative aims to integrate smart, sustainable, and cost-effective mobility options within XiCon’s expanding urban logistics operations, particularly for last-mile delivery.
Under the terms of the agreement, Wardwizard will lease the scooters to XiCon and ensure their operational reliability through uptime assurance. Additionally, Wardwizard will establish service and charging stations, manage spare parts, batteries, and provide technical support for the vehicles.
