by Suman Gupta

Mumbai, April , 2022 – Napino Auto & Electronics Ltd., India’s premier Tier 1 Automotive Component Manufacturing Company, has forged a commercial licensing agreement with EVR Motors, an Israeli start-up with a newly designed and patented motor topology. The Trapezoidal Stator – Radial Flux Permanent Magnet (TS – RFPM) topology. The strategic partnership will see Napino partner with EVR to develop and manufacture motors for electric 2Ws in India.

The TSRF technology is distinctive because of its lightweight & compact design. Proprietary TS Topology has a unique trapezoidal tooth shape core structure, which improves flux distribution, reduces leakage, and gives superior heat dissipation with good thermal capacity. The TS topology can be tailored for a wide variety of requirements and enable multiple variations based on the same design and tooling. The air-cooled motor for 2W application weighs under 7 kgs, has a diameter of 130mm, and is a perfect fit for Indian 2W electric vehicles. The voltage range is modular between 48- 96V.

The new collaboration with EVR for TSRF motors will give a new shape to the EV industry with lower cost and better performance while maintaining the advantages of traditional RFPM motors. Thanks to this technology, the motor is significantly lighter, smaller, and efficient than conventional electric motors

EVR and Napino shall bring together the expertise of designing and manufacturing the all-new TSRF motors at their state-of-the-art manufacturing facility.

On the new agreement, Mr. Vaibhav Raheja, Joint Managing Director of Napino, commented “This partnership will help us build a stronger EV portfolio. These high -performance motors of up to 17KW, would allow us to cater to the premium EV segment. We are excited about bringing these products into the EV space.”

Commenting on the partnership, Mr. Naveen Kumar, Group CEO of Napino said, “Our partnership with EVR for manufacturing their high-class power and torque density electric motors is a practical solution for the Indian market. The TSRF motor offer enhanced flux density thus reducing the motor size and related costs without compromising performance”

Opher Doron, CEO of EVR Motors commented, “We’re excited about our strategic partnership with Napino, a leading Tier 1 supplier, to manufacture and commercialize EVR’s motors for the Indian market. Meeting the growing demand for electric motors and accelerating EV adoption in India is only possible when joining hands with a leading automotive player. Combining our unique technology with Napino’s engineering and manufacturing excellence will make a real difference in making our world more sustainable and improving the quality of life in India.
