Japanese firm Musashi Seimitsu Industry has partnered with advanced battery technology company Log 9 Materials to deliver next-generation electric vehicle (EV) powertrain solutions for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in both domestic and international markets. The collaboration focuses on integrating Musashi's e-axle system with Log 9's innovative battery technology to create high-performance powertrains specifically designed for electric two- and three-wheelers.

This strategic partnership aims to address key challenges in EV energy management, scalability, and service reliability. By merging their expertise, the companies aim to optimize vehicle performance, reduce energy loss, and extend vehicle range, particularly in densely populated urban environments. Musashi's subsidiary, Musashi Auto Parts India, recently began mass production of e-axles for domestic electric two-wheelers, highlighting the firm’s growing influence in India’s EV sector.

Log 9 Materials Co-founder Pankaj Sharma emphasized the shared commitment to decarbonization and fostering global sustainability through this innovative technology. A notable aspect of the collaboration is the centralized service model for the battery and e-axle systems, which aims to reduce downtime and improve customer satisfaction with faster service turnaround.

In addition to the Indian market, the partnership will target expansion into Southeast Asia and Africa, supported by an extensive after-sales service network across major Indian cities. Musashi’s entry into the EV sector aligns with its long-term goals to drive innovation and contribute to global efforts to reduce carbon emissions.
