Routematic EV Fleet Cuts Fuel Costs, Saves ₹65 Lakh Every 15 Days

With over 15,000 employee transportation trips managed daily and a fleet exceeding 7,500 vehicles, Routematic is now focused on expanding its EV footprint further.

Rising global fuel price volatility is strengthening the case for electric vehicle (EV) adoption, as new operational data from Routematic highlights substantial cost savings for enterprises transitioning to electrified fleets.

The AI-enabled corporate mobility platform, which serves over 400 enterprises across 24+ cities in India, has deployed more than 400 company-owned EVs across its employee transportation network in Bengaluru and Pune. According to the company, these EVs are helping avoid the consumption of approximately 65,400 litres of fuel every 15 days compared to conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles.

At current fuel prices of around INR 100 per litre, this translates to nearly INR 65 lakh in fuel cost savings every 15 days. If sustained over a year, Routematic estimates that its existing EV deployments could help avoid over 15.7 lakh litres of fuel annually, resulting in savings of approximately INR 15.7 crore.

The company noted that these figures are based on current fleet size and prevailing fuel prices, and that a full-scale transition to EVs could significantly amplify both cost savings and operational efficiencies.

The findings come at a time when geopolitical tensions continue to disrupt global oil markets, increasing uncertainty around fuel costs. Routematic’s data underscores how electrification is emerging not just as a sustainability initiative but also as a strategic hedge against fuel price fluctuations.

Despite these advantages, adoption of structured corporate commute systems remains limited. According to Routematic’s report on Global Capability Centres (GCCs) in India, over 60% still lack integrated mobility systems, indicating untapped potential for optimization and electrification.

Commenting on the development, Sriram Kannan, Founder and CEO of Routematic, said that ongoing global energy disruptions are reinforcing the importance of EV adoption in enterprise mobility. He emphasized that electrification, combined with intelligent routing and fleet optimization, can significantly reduce fuel dependency while improving cost efficiency.

Employee transportation fleets, which typically operate 100–150 kilometres daily on fixed routes, are particularly well-suited for electrification due to their predictable usage patterns. Routematic’s EV fleet currently averages around 120 kilometres per day per vehicle, maximizing utilization while lowering emissions and operating costs.

The company leverages its AI-driven fleet intelligence platform to optimize routing, scheduling, and energy usage, ensuring efficient deployment of EVs across its network.

With over 15,000 employee transportation trips managed daily and a fleet exceeding 7,500 vehicles, Routematic is now focused on expanding its EV footprint further. The company is collaborating with enterprise clients and fleet partners to accelerate the adoption of electric mobility, aligning with India’s broader sustainability and energy transition goals.
