BEML Launches India's First Indigenous 60-Ton Electric Dump Truck

BEML Limited has launched the BH60-EV, India's first indigenously designed and developed 60-ton electric dump truck, at its Mysuru Complex. This next-generation vehicle features zero tailpipe emissions and high-capacity performance, targeting the mining and infrastructure sectors. The BH60-EV is powered by a 1,000 kWh lithium-ion battery and a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor, offering 40-60% lower operating costs and an estimated annual CO2 reduction of around 130 tonnes per vehicle compared to diesel equivalents. BEML also provides integrated charging station solutions. This launch expands BEML's electric vehicle portfolio, following its 35-ton electric dump truck introduced earlier.
