en.Wedoany.com Reported - Bosch has launched third-generation silicon carbide semiconductors chips, providing higher performance and efficiency solutions for the Indian electric vehicle market. As India's electric mobility transitions from early adoption to demands for scale and affordability, Bosch Limited, a subsidiary of the Bosch Group, announced the launch of its latest third-generation silicon carbide (SiC) semiconductor products. This series of chips aims to enhance electric vehicle performance and efficiency while supporting the development of a localized mobility ecosystem.
Silicon carbide (SiC) semiconductors are key components for improving electric vehicle efficiency, primarily controlling energy flow in power electronics systems, especially inverters, to ensure efficient energy conversion from the battery to the motor. Bosch's new generation of SiC chips delivers approximately 20% performance improvement, enabling end users to achieve longer driving range without increasing battery size, while improving battery utilization and reducing total cost of ownership.
Sandeep Nelamangala, Joint Managing Director of Bosch Limited and President of Bosch Mobility India, stated that this SiC technology is designed to meet the real-world needs of Indian consumers for longer range, faster charging, and lower long-term costs. By making efficient power electronics more accessible, it helps unlock the potential of the electric vehicle market. Bosch has delivered over 60 million SiC chips globally and continues to invest billions of euros to expand its global semiconductor capabilities in support of India's electrification journey.
Markus Heyn, Member of the Board of Management of Bosch and Chairman of the Bosch Mobility Business Sector, said the company aims to become a global leader in SiC chip manufacturing. The new generation of SiC chips is helping customers bring more powerful and efficient electric vehicles to market. Gen 3 SiC technology reduces energy losses, improves thermal performance, and simplifies system complexity and cooling requirements, enabling more compact and efficient power electronics designs. Miniaturization allows for more chips per wafer, driving long-term cost efficiency and making high-performance electronics more widely accessible.
These combined advantages make advanced power electronics suitable not only for high-end models but also for mass-market electric vehicle segments focused on efficiency, affordability, and reliability. Through this strategic introduction, Bosch brings advanced semiconductor innovation closer to India's evolving mobility needs, supporting the next phase of efficient, scalable, and sustainable electric mobility in the country.
