Strategically set at Hotel Vijayashree on NH-16, right along the Vijayawada Guntur Highway, the new station offers travellers a perfect pit stop to charge their EV when they recharge themselves at the hotel’s facilities. Starting with 50 kW capacity and scalable to a massive 1 MW, the station is equipped with a 30 kW DC CCS2 fast charger and two 3.3 kW AC chargers, catering to two-three and four-wheelers alike.
“This isn’t just about charging vehicles it’s about charging dreams. I want more women to embrace technology-driven businesses and help build a greener, more sustainable India. I chose ThunderPlus for its unmatched trust, cutting-edge tech, assured business guarantees, and end-to-end franchise support. The company’s turnkey model, 24×7 technical assistance, and future-ready revenue structure gave her the confidence to dive into a high-growth, low-risk venture," said Leela Lakshmi, the franchise owner.
Rajeev YSR, CEO of ThunderPlus, said, “We’re here to remove charging anxiety from India’s EV ecosystem while democratising the technology and business model so that everyone, everywhere, can be part of this revolution.”
With this launch, ThunderPlus continues to demonstrate that EV adoption in India is not only about infrastructure but also about inclusivity and empowerment, while building a cleaner tomorrow
“ThunderPlus stands for operational excellence, hassle-free maintenance, and relentless innovation in sustainable mobility I knew I’d be joining a network that’s not just leading the EV charge but also driving empowerment,” added Lakshmi.
Industry leaders say that ThunderPlus’s franchise model is a game-changer, breaking down entry barriers for first-time entrepreneurs, especially women, by delivering full technical backing and centralised operations. This approach has turned ambition into action, and action into impact.
