Drive the future of mobility from Telangana

Telangana pairs a strong automotive manufacturing base with one of India’s fastest-growing EV and mobility ecosystems. NIMZ-Zaheerabad is the zone for large-scale manufacturing. Telangana Mobility Valley brings together EV innovation, energy storage, testing and advanced mobility infrastructure. Divitipally, home to the Amara Raja Giga Corridor, anchors the state’s energy storage and battery manufacturing cluster.

Mahindra & Mahindra, Hyundai, MRF, Bosch, Stellantis, ZF, Amara Raja and Olectra Greentech are already established here. Recent investments include Hyundai’s $964 million Global Innovation R&D and testing centre, and Amara Raja’s $1.07 billion Giga Corridor at Divitipally for lithium-ion cells and battery packs, with planned capacity of up to 16 GWh of cells and 5 GWh of packs.

Dedicated EV and ESS clusters, India’s first Connected & Autonomous Vehicle (CAV) proving ground, a growing charging network and strong engineering talent make Telangana a strong base for next-generation mobility. The CAV proving ground includes 16 automotive testing tracks such as high-speed oval tracks, gradient climbs, braking pads, noise measurement tracks and specialised ADAS courses, along with validation labs such as NVH, EMC, EV motor, battery and BMS testing.
