      In India, Musashi Auto Parts India Pvt Ltd (Musashi) has started producing EV two-wheeler e-axles in large quantities.

      The line-off event to mark the beginning of mass production was place on June 5 at Musashi India’s production plant in Bangalore, where the e-axles would be produced.

      In phase 1, Musashi has established a production capacity of 10,000 e-axles per month. Starting in the third year, more lines will be added, increasing this. These e-axles, which are designed to be a compatible drive unit that fits into EV two-wheelers with ease, will be silent, small, and light. They will play a crucial role in providing consumers with improved performance, range, and riding conditions.

      Naoya Nishimura (CEO, India and Africa Region), stated, “The commencement of the manufacturing of e-axles marks a significant milestone in our journey towards accelerating the adoption of EVs in India and enabling a faster transition to green mobility. Our production lines are equipped with state of the art technologies that will ensure a seamless integration across the assembly line, ensuring increased efficiencies and production output.”

      “With the rapid growth of EV two-wheelers in India, the need to build a local and robust ecosystem of EV components is imperative. At Musashi, our goal is to contribute to the growth of  this ecosystem by combining our legacy and expertise in manufacturing auto components with our R&D capabilities to deliver cutting-edge, high performance EV drive units to the burgeoning EV industry in India.”

      Musashi plans to invest Rs 160 crore in its electric vehicle (EV) business in Phase I. This significant investment has been allocated to establishing new assembly lines for EV transmission components and upgrading existing facilities.

      The company forayed into the EV segment in India in September 2023, by announcing a joint venture with Delta Electronics, Inc. and Toyota Tsusho Corporation, to establish Musashi Delta e-Axle India Private Limited.

      With a 51 % stake in the JV, Musashi set-up the facility in Bangalore to manufacture and sell e-Axles for two-wheeler EVs in the Indian, African and ASEAN market.

      Consisting of a motor assembly line and a drive unit assembly line, Musashi plans to achieve a localisation level of 2/3rd of the total cost by the end of this financial year.

      Musashi India is also working with BNC Motors to develop products equipped with EV drive units. These units will be used in BNC’s upcoming EV two-wheeler that will be equivalent to a 125cc ICE scooter.
