Propel Industries Private Limited, a leader in crushing and screening equipment and a pioneer in electric tipper manufacturing, announced a major expansion of its electric mining and construction lineup at EXCON 2025. The company unveiled four new electric tipper models, a next-generation connectivity platform, and a comprehensive after-sales service ecosystem in the presence of Chief Guests Dr Soumya Ranjan Samal, Founder and CMD of Kalinga Commercial Corporation, and J Rudrasekar, Director of Rajiraj Minerals.
The newly launched products include the 90CED, 70CED, 560HEV-X and 470MEV Gen-2 electric tippers, alongside Pulse.ev, a next-generation digital fleet management platform, and Pro EV Care, a structured multi-tier service program. Propel also introduced an industry-first battery warranty of up to 5,000 cycles or five years, marking a significant leap forward in EV reliability for heavy-duty applications.
Speaking at the launch, Managing Director V. Senthilkumar said the new platforms were engineered to meet the real-world demands of heavy-duty mining and construction work. He emphasized that productivity, operational economics, reliability and safety remain the company’s core focus. According to him, the expanded lineup strengthens India’s electric heavy-duty ecosystem and offers operators technology capable of withstanding the country’s toughest conditions.
Siddarth Kirtane, President of EV Sales, Marketing and Service, highlighted Propel’s rapid progress since entering the EV truck segment in 2023. The company has grown its footprint across coal, overburden, limestone, iron ore, stone quarrying, marble and granite, as well as solid-waste management. Propel’s EV trucks have collectively logged more than 500,000 operating hours, while the first batch of eight trucks has completed 12,500 hours in two years equivalent to 20 hours of daily usage demonstrating strong reliability and uptime.
The new 90CED model stands out as India’s first ultra-fast-charging 90-ton electric dumper. With a 34 cu.m struck volume and battery capacities ranging from 310 to 650 kWh, it is positioned as one of the most productive machines in its class. It incorporates ADAS Level 1 safety through an electronic braking system, fatigue monitoring, fail-safe parking, trunnion jack technology and an advanced human–machine interface, while meeting DGMS safety norms.
The 70CED makes its debut as India’s first 8×4 mining tipper with a 25 cu.m rock body designed for high-output operations. Complementing it, the 560HEV-X is billed as the country’s first 8×4 construction tipper with a 25 cu.m box body, engineered for large-scale infrastructure work with advanced stability and fast-charging capability. Rounding out the lineup, the 470MEV Gen-2 offers enhanced carrying capacity, three battery configuration options, and compliance with DGMS norms, targeting mainstream mining deployment.
Propel’s new connectivity platform, Pulse.ev, introduces real-time vehicle health monitoring, energy consumption insights, predictive maintenance capabilities and fleet optimization tools, specifically tailored for electric mining and hauling environments.
Alongside the digital ecosystem, the company announced Pro EV Care, a modular five-tier service program designed to meet diverse customer requirements. With uptime assurance and customizable on-site support, the service package aims to deliver predictable operating costs and improved profitability for fleet operators.
