Tata Elxsi, Infineon partner to develop application-ready EV solutions

Tata Elxsi and Infineon Technologies have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to jointly develop electric vehicle (EV) systems for the Indian market.
The companies will collaborate to develop high-voltage inverters, battery management systems, onboard chargers, and thermal management systems for India's electric two-wheeler, three-wheeler, passenger vehicle, and commercial vehicle segments.
The partnership also plans to explore electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL), energy, and off-highway applications.
Tata Elxsi, a Tata Group company, will contribute design and integration capabilities, while Infineon will provide early access to semiconductor technologies such as silicon carbide-based components, microcontrollers, and integrated circuits.
The partnership aims to combine system integration capabilities and semiconductor technologies to create safe automotive systems. It also addresses requirements such as Automotive Safety Integrity Level D, which is the highest safety classification under ISO 26262.
Tata Elxsi provides solutions in connected mobility, network transformation, and medical engineering.
Overall EV sales in India grew by 25–30 per cent in 2024, including a 28 per cent increase in electric two and three wheeler sales.
'Currently, several of our EV solutions are already built on Infineon SoCs and components. This MoU further strengthens our partnership by giving us a clearer scope and tighter system-level alignment,' said Nambi Ganesh, Head of Automotive, Tata Elxsi.
'By combining Tata Elxsi's design and integration expertise with our advanced semiconductor solutions, we are not only enhancing the development of ready-to-deploy EV systems but also ensuring that they meet the highest safety and performance standards,' said Kenneth Lim, Senior Vice President, Automotive, Infineon Technologies Asia Pacific.
In April, Tata Elxsi had entered into a multi-year agreement worth €50 million with a Europe-based automotive original equipment manufacturer (OEM). As part of the agreement, Tata Elxsi will support platform and application development in the areas of software-defined vehicles (SDV), electrification, and body and chassis systems.

BRICS, Diesel, Urea…India and China come together to teach Trump a lesson amid tariff war, PM Modi now plans to..., Gautam Adani also to...

New Delhi: India and China appear to be coming closer amid US President Donald Trump's tariff war. According to the reports, India has exported diesel to Xi Jinping's China, while China, on the other hand, has softened its stance and eased restrictions on urea exports to India. In addition to this, the direct flights between India and China likely to begin soon. To recall, the Modi government had suspended direct flights to China since the COVID-19 outbreak. Moreover, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit China this year to attend the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit. Reports suggest that India is also set to assume the BRICS chairmanship soon, raising the possibility that Chinese President Xi Jinping may visit India. It is believed that BRICS nations, including India, China, Russia, and Brazil, could strengthen cooperation to rein in Donald Trump. India-US Ties: Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi was among the first few leaders who met US President Donald Trump after he returned to the White House. However, despite all the bonhomie, the relationship between the nations witnessed a new low after Donald Trump imposed a massive 50 percent tariff on India and overtures to the Pakistani Army Chief Asim Munir. Meanwhile, after the Galwan clash in 2020, economic ties between India and BRICS member China now appear to be getting back on track. India has announced that it will grant tourist visas to Chinese citizens. What Chinese Experts Said About India–China Friendship Speaking to Bloomberg, Henry Wang, president of a Chinese think tank, said that relations between India and China are now 'on the rise.' Henry Wang also said that as leaders of the Global South, the two countries need to engage in dialogue with each other. Wang pointed out that China, too, is a prime target of Trump's tariff war. China has also indicated its willingness to improve relations with India. China has approved the export of urea to India, the world's largest fertilizer importer. Adani is looking to form a joint venture with China's BYD to manufacture batteries on a large scale within India. Prime Minister Modi may meet the Chinese President on August 31 during the SCO meeting. China is India's second-largest trading partner after the United States. India has a significant need for Chinese technology and raw materials to boost its manufacturing sector. Analysts say that while there is a visible warming in India–China ties, full trust between the two will not be established overnight.
