With diverse, innovative solutions at its disposal, Uno Minda is primed to play a pivotal role in shaping the future landscape of sustainable transportation in India.

The Company stated, “This partnership will significantly expand Uno Minda's e-4W product portfolio, enabling them to cater to the growing Indian EV market effectively.”

Similar to our success in e-2W, we are building a strong portfolio for e-4W. We are delighted to partner with lnovance Automotive to strengthen our EV product offerings for e-4W vehicles and accelerate India's transition to a sustainable and electrified future."
