Tata Elxsi and Infineon Partner to Accelerate EV Innovation in India
Mumbai: Tata Elxsi and Infineon Technologies have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to jointly develop application-ready EV solutions tailored to the Indian market. The partnership aims to leverage design and integration expertise to enable faster adoption of automotive-grade, cost-optimized, and safety-compliant subsystems across key mobility segments.
Key Focus Areas
- EV Solutions: Development of high-voltage inverters, scalable battery management systems (BMS), bi-directional onboard chargers, and high-voltage thermal management solutions for the Indian market.
- Safety Compliance: Critical safety requirements such as ASIL-D compliance, as per ISO 26262 standards, will be addressed.
- Market Segments: The partnership will serve India’s fast-evolving 2W, 3W, PV, and CV segments, with future pathways to address eVTOL, energy, and off-highway sectors.
“Tata Elxsi and Infineon will work closely to develop high-voltage inverters and scalable battery management systems,” said Nambi Ganesh, Head of Automotive, Tata Elxsi. “This MoU further strengthens our partnership and enables shorter turnaround times to address Indian market requirements.”
“At Infineon, we are committed to driving innovation in the electric vehicle sector,” said Kenneth Lim, Senior Vice President, Automotive, Infineon Technologies Asia Pacific. “This partnership with Tata Elxsi is a significant step in our journey to support India’s ambitious electrification goals.”
The initiative supports national targets outlined by NITI Aayog, including 80% electrification of 2W and 3W and 70% of CVs by 2030. With EV sales growing by 25-30% year-on-year in 2024, the partnership is well-positioned to contribute to India’s electric mobility goals.
