Manba Finance Launches Battery Replacement Loans for Electric Three-Wheelers
Manba Finance Limited has launched a Battery Replacement Financing product to support electric three-wheeler owners in India. This loan offers affordable, short-term financing for lithium-ion battery replacements, which are a significant recurring cost and have shorter lifespans than the vehicles. The batteries are sourced from certified OEMs with warranty and service support. The product features digital onboarding, e-mandate repayments, and IoT-enabled batteries, initially targeting existing customers before wider rollout.
