In his role at Ola, Julien will be responsible for building and growing Ola’s European operations for its electric business. He brings over 15 years of deep automotive experience across some of the world’s leading automotive companies. Before joining Ola, he was the Global Commercial Director and a member of the Board of Management at Peugeot Motorcycles. Julien had a very successful stint at Bentley Motors Ltd as their Head of Sales and then as Head of Retail Marketing, Europe. Julien has also worked with Alpine and BMW, where he was responsible for positioning the famous Mini in France as a leading luxury brand. 

Commenting on the appointment, Bhavish Aggarwal, Chairman and Group CEO, Ola said, “We are happy to announce the appointment of Julien to lead our European operations. As we gear up to bring the first of our range of electric vehicles to markets around the world, Julien’s expertise will be key to building our electric business across Europe.  As a rapidly growing hub of EVs, Europe is a key market for us to realise our vision of moving the world towards sustainable mobility solutions.”

Speaking on his appointment, Julien Geffard said, “I am excited to join Ola and be a part of this incredibly talented, and diverse team that is bringing the exciting range of electric two-wheelers to our customers in Europe and around the world.

The two-wheeler EV market in Europe has seen double-digit growth in 2020, with customers looking for differentiated products that are stylish, smart and lightweight, available at competitive prices. The development of EV charging infrastructure is expected to continue as governments make stronger investments to encourage sustainable mobility solutions aimed at zero vehicle emission.
