Lithium-ion batteries manufacturer, Neuron Energy has partnered with electric vehicles manufacturer, Hexall Motors, to supply 1000 custom-designed battery packs to Hexall Motors over the next year, starting from June 2024.
Hexall Motors had unveiled a pioneering L5 category vehicle featuring a double front wheel, the first of its kind in the world. This innovative design is patented and approved by the Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI).
The collaboration is expected to generate an annual revenue of Rs. 20 crore for Neuron Energy. The supplied battery packs are 16 KWR fast charging high-speed units, specially engineered for light commercial vehicles (LCVs). Neuron Energy has tailored these battery packs to meet the unique requirements of Hexall Motors’ new vehicle, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency.
Pratik Kamdar, CEO & Co-Founder of Neuron Energy, said “Our advanced battery technology will provide the necessary power and reliability for Hexall’s new double front wheel EVs, supporting their vision of transforming urban mobility. By leveraging our innovative battery packs, this partnership paves the way for future growth and expansion in our business. It underscores our commitment to pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the electric vehicle industry.”
Hexall Motors' new vehicle, set to debut in the Delhi NCR region, boasts several advantages. It offers substantial cargo volume, making it the preferred choice for last-mile delivery companies, particularly for transporting electronic goods and oversized cargo. With a container depth of 8.5 feet, it stands out as one of the largest in its segment. The double front wheel design enhances stability, providing a safer and more reliable option for urban transportation.
Highlighting the importance of this collaboration, Devesh Parekh, Co-Founder of Hexall Motors, stated, “For any EV vehicle company, having robust energy storage systems and battery packs is crucial, as they represent almost half the cost of the electric vehicles and are critical for overall performance. Our vehicles are very different and new in this category, with unique configurations. Therefore, we needed special battery packs with advanced Battery Management Systems (BMS), high-speed charging, and a higher range to meet the needs of our vehicles. We sought a partner who could work collaboratively with us and understand our technology. With Neuron Energy's battery packs, we found exactly that.”
