Electrovaya Partners with Tata Motors and Miljo to Launch Electric Car and Battery Production in Norway

MISSISSAUGA, ON, Canada | Posted on October 14th, 2008

Tata Motors' UK subsidiary, Tata Motors European Technical Centre plc, holds 50.3% of the equity of Miljo.

As its technology partner, Electrovaya receives equity in Miljo, a technology license fee and a royalty based on the value of its proprietary Lithium Ion SuperPolymer® batteries used in the electric cars.

In addition to manufacturing state-of-the-art Lithium Ion SuperPolymer® batteries and the development of related technologies, Miljo will produce electric vehicles based on Tata Motors' products. The first such vehicle will be the Indica EV, which is scheduled for launch in Europe during 2009. The Indica EV will be a practical option for the consumer: capable of carrying 4 people, adequate luggage space, with a predicted range of up to 200 km and acceleration of 0-60 kmph in under 10 seconds.
