ICICI Securities Report

Hero MotoCorp Ltd. and Taiwan’s Gogoro Inc. have announced a joint venture to collaborate on development of a battery-swapping network in India based on the latter’s tech platform.

Hero-branded vehicles would be powered by Gogoro swappable batteries. Gogoro is a global leader in urban battery swapping and smart mobility innovation.

This partnership could aid Hero MotoCorp’s electric vehicle products’ acceptance as customer capital cost could be reduced significantly (we anticipate ~30-40%) as vehicles can also be sold without a battery.

We believe battery as a service could be an additional revenue stream for the JV; access to this in future be offered to other original equipment manufacturers too.
