Ola Electric Becomes India's First Automotive OEM to Get Government Certification For its In-House Developed Ferrite Motor
Ola Electric Mobility Limited has announced that it became the first two-wheeler EV manufacturer to receive government certification for its in-house developed rare-earth-free ferrite motor. This certification has been granted by Global Automotive Research Centre, Tamil Nadu, after Ola Electric’s ferrite motor underwent rigorous performance verification and mandatory motor power tests as per AIS 041. The ferrite motor delivers efficiency, performance, and durability on par with rare-earth permanent magnet motors, while dramatically lowering costs and de-risking supply chain fluctuations. With this certification, Ola Electric will begin integrating the ferrite motor across its product lineup, further enhancing performance, affordability, and sustainability for millions of Indian consumers.
