16th October 2024: In a significant shot to India’s Electric Vehicle sector, Tsuyo, the pioneering electric vehicle technology innovator. Announced its first dedicated production line for high-wattage powertrains for EVs. This significant facility will transform electric motors in making commercial vehicles and further cement India’s stake in the world’s ecosystem for electric vehicles.
Tsuyo New Age in Commercial Electric Vehicles in India
The powertrains produced in this newly established production line were initially invested in at USD 8 million. They are intended to meet the ever-growing demand for electric powertrains in commercial EVs like trucks and heavy-duty construction machinery, e-buses, and e-trailers. Powertrains have outputs ranging from 30 kW to 350 kW and serve the high energy needs of heavy-duty vehicles, making a crucial move toward sustainable transport.
Future-Ahead Innovations in EVs
Tsuyo has a high-tech facility with spearheading automation and manufacturing technology, which brings in top quality, absolute precision and efficiency. Advanced automation further helps Tsuyo maintain high factory standards even when production increases to meet rising market demands. The key features of the production line include:
- Advanced Automation: It seeks to integrate the highest technology to enhance the speed of manufacturing, efficacy, and reliability of the products produced.
- Sustainability at the core of the facility: always keeping in mind the use of natural and basic materials which would prevent carbon emissions.
- This shares the same line with India’s main goals: cutting down emission and a green manufacturing process. In terms of enhancing this process, use of sustainable material for less energy consumption will be practiced.
- Six Categories of Powertrain Systems: Tsuyo will undertake six categories of powertrain systems that would cover commercial vehicle segments, offering flexible powertrain solutions for different applications.
It is expected that the unit will be fully operational by the end of this quarter to transform Tsuyo into an indigenous producer of innovative powertrain solutions for a considerable number of commercial vehicle manufacturers in the country.
Tsuyo Strategic Milestone in Boosting India’s EV Industry
The production line launch is one of the grand victories in India’s drive toward self-reliance in manufacturing. The Indian government is offering its Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme for heavy incentives in local manufacturing. Investment by Tsuyo marks one of the highly pivotal moments for the Indian electric vehicle supply chain.
CEO Viajy Kumar promised that Tsuyo would be focused entirely on helping India reach its electrification targets, “Through developing high-performance powertrains here in India, we are enabling manufacturers to take advantage of PLI incentives, thus driving India on her path toward EV self-sufficiency and sustainability.”
The facility instituted by Tsuyo will also generate approximately 150 new jobs within the first 18 months, thereby developing advanced techniques in the manufacturing of EVs. This commitment toward job creation and upskilling of workforces will have an excellent impact on the economy in the long term.
Industry Reacts on Tsuyo
Much excitement has been generated in the EV industry due to this Tsuyo initiative. The production line will be counted as a milestone for India’s commercial EV market. Environmental activists have praised Tsuyo for its commitment to sustainability, saying that electric powertrains are crucial to lowering emissions from heavy-duty vehicles. Such vehicles were also major contributors to air pollution; hence, these innovations by Tsuyo are a more critical measure in combating global warming.
ELCTRIK Speaks
The Tsuyo launch will mark a very important milestone not only for Tsuyo itself but for the entire commercial EV ecosystem as well. Focused on significant investments in R&D, job creation, and high-tech, Tsuyo is powering a future wherein clean, efficient, and sustainable transportation is the norm. As India takes the next step in the journey of electrification, it is through innovations like the Tsuyo that the course to future modes of transportation will be mapped.
