Spread across 8.15 acres adjacent to Hyundai鈥檚 vehicle manufacturing unit, the facility has an initial capacity of 36,000 units annually, scalable to 75,000 units in line with rising demand for electric mobility.

The upcoming Hyundai Creta Electric will be the first model to feature battery packs assembled at this new unit. Mobis aims to play a crucial role in Hyundai鈥檚 broader strategy to localise EV production and strengthen its electric vehicle portfolio in India.
Currently, the plant manufactures Nickel-Manganese-Cobalt (NMC) battery packs and is expected to support Lithium-Iron-Phosphate (LFP) battery production in the near future. T. R. B. Rajaa, Tamil Nadu鈥檚 Minister for Industries, Investment Promotion and Commerce, officially inaugurated the facility.
