Tata Elxsi, a design and technology services company in Tata Group, and Infineon Technologies, a German player in semiconductor solutions, have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to jointly develop application-ready EV solutions tailored to the Indian market.
This strategic collaboration aligns with India’s rapid shift towards electrification, with EV sales growing by 25–30% year-on-year in 2024, including a 28% increase in electric two- and three-wheeler sales, Tata Elxsi said.
Under this collaboration, Tata Elxsi and Infineon would work closely to develop high-voltage inverters for traction and auxiliary systems, scalable battery management systems (BMS), bi-directional onboard chargers, and high-voltage thermal management solutions for the Indian market. This would serve India’s fast-evolving 2W, 3W, PV, and CV segments, with future pathways to address eVTOL, energy, and off-highway sectors, said the company.
According to the company, the partnership strategically leverages design and integration expertise, enabling faster adoption of automotive-grade, cost-optimised, and safety-compliant subsystems across key mobility segments. It addresses critical safety requirements such as ASIL-D (Automotive Safety Integrity Level D) compliance, as per ISO 26262 (Functional Safety of Road Vehicles) standards.
‘Currently, several of our EV solutions are already built on Infineon SoCs and components. As EV adoption scales, our focus remains on delivering production-ready, automotive standards-compliant platforms and solutions,” said Nambi Ganesh, Head of Automotive, Tata Elxsi.
Tata Elxsi, as per the MoU, brings its design, system integration, and validation capabilities, while Infineon will provide early access to its latest semiconductor technologies—such as silicon carbide (SiC)-based components, microcontrollers, and integrated circuits (ICs).
