Olectra Greentech has partnered with Dassault Systèmes to strengthen digital product development capabilities for electric mobility solutions in India. Through this collaboration, Olectra aims to accelerate the design and development of next-generation electric buses and commercial EV platforms using advanced virtual engineering technologies. The partnership reflects the growing role of digital transformation in India’s rapidly expanding electric vehicle industry.
As part of the agreement, Olectra will adopt Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform to streamline vehicle engineering, simulation, manufacturing, and lifecycle management within a unified digital environment. The platform is expected to improve collaboration between teams, reduce development complexity, and help the company bring innovative EV products to market faster and more efficiently.
The move will allow Olectra to use virtual testing and digital simulations before physical production, helping engineers optimize vehicle performance, safety, and design accuracy at an earlier stage. By reducing dependency on repeated physical prototyping, the company expects faster product validation, lower development costs, and improved operational efficiency across its EV manufacturing processes.
Olectra said the partnership aligns with its long-term vision of expanding its electric mobility portfolio and enhancing technology-driven innovation. The company has been actively scaling its presence in India’s electric bus segment and is now focusing on smarter engineering systems to support future growth in electric commercial transportation.
According to company leadership, adopting a digital-first product development ecosystem will help Olectra improve vehicle quality while meeting evolving industry standards and customer expectations. Dassault Systèmes also emphasized that integrated digital engineering platforms are becoming increasingly important for automakers looking to accelerate EV innovation and build sustainable mobility solutions for the future.
The collaboration highlights how automotive manufacturers in India are rapidly embracing advanced software and virtual engineering tools to strengthen EV development capabilities. As competition in the electric mobility sector continues to grow, partnerships focused on smart manufacturing, digital design, and faster innovation cycles are expected to play a major role in shaping the future of India’s EV ecosystem.
