The launch of Maruti Suzuki’s e Vitara, the company’s first battery electric vehicle (BEV), marks a notable step in the adoption of electric mobility in India. Central to this innovation is the eAxle, developed in collaboration by BluE Nexus Corporation, Aisin Corporation, and DENSO Corporation.
The eAxle utilizes a compact motor and inverter for high power density and dynamic performance. Moreover, it incorporates loss reduction technology to improve electrical consumption, enhancing the vehicle’s efficiency.
Built around the concept of an “Emotional Versatile Cruiser”, the e Vitara features a modern design and a BEV powertrain that promises sharp and brisk driving performance. The eAxle simplifies the design of the BEV, reduces weight, and improves efficiency. Manufactured in India by BluE Nexus Automotive India Pvt. Ltd. at Suzuki Motor Gujarat Private Limited, it reinforces the focus on localized manufacturing and sustainable practices.
BluE Nexus, established in 2019, combines the expertise of Aisin, DENSO, and Toyota to create electrification systems aimed at supporting carbon neutrality and advancing EV technology. Through ongoing innovation, the partnership seeks to make BEVs more accessible and efficient for markets worldwide.
