How we can work together
Four ways to partner with us.
We agree terms with each partner. Approval in your country follows its own rules, and we plan it together with you.
Distribution
Import and sell built vehicles in your market, with spares, training and technical support from us.
Local assembly
Assemble from kits we ship, completely or semi knocked down (CKD or SKD), with our assembly documents and quality checks.
Licensing
Build on our platforms and designs in your market under licence, with our engineering support.
Joint venture
Build, certify and sell together, in a market where a shared company makes sense.
Where it works
Built for the work every city has.
Campuses and facilities
Supplies, linen, tools and waste moved around universities, hospitals, business parks and factories.
Municipal and civic work
Street-cleaning crews, bin rounds and park upkeep, with the load in a closed box instead of on a hand cart.
Parcel hubs and the last mile
Parcels too big for a bike and too small for a van, delivered by one rider from a local hub.
Airports, ports and resorts
Housekeeping, supplies and small cargo moved quietly inside large, closed sites.
CROC EV in figures

Certification
Certified in India, ready to plan for your market.
CROC EV is built on RT100, our reverse-trike platform. RT100 is certified by ARAI, India's national vehicle testing and certification body, and CROC EV registers in India as an e-cart, a registered commercial vehicle.
Approval outside India follows each country's own rules. We plan it with our partner in that market, from the first conversation.
We hold 15 patents on layout, structure and battery, more than 95% of CROC EV's parts are made in India, and we can assemble 250 vehicles a month.
