Tata Elxsi, a provider of design and technology services; and Suzuki Motor Corporation, a Japanese multinational mobility manufacturer, have inaugurated the SUZUKI–TATA ELXSI Cloud HIL Centre in Trivandrum, India. This dedicated facility is Suzuki’s first full-vehicle cloud-enabled Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) validation centre and represents the second engineering centre established under the Tata Elxsi–Suzuki partnership, following the Offshore Development Centre (ODC) in Pune.
The Cloud HIL Centre is engineered for early-stage, full-vehicle simulation and validation through a cloud-native infrastructure. It enables Suzuki’s development and test teams to remotely access HIL infrastructure integrated with Electronic Control Units (ECUs) – reducing reliance on physical prototypes and accelerating validation cycles across R&D centers worldwide. This aligns with Suzuki’s roadmap for Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs), reinforcing a shift towardsoftware-led, scalable development.
Purpose-built to support this transformation, the facility integrates Tata Elxsi’s domain expertise in automotive Verification and Validation (V&V), test automation, and simulation, enabling transformative advancements in development speed, quality, and future readiness.
As part of Suzuki’s global “SDV Right” strategy for Electrical and Electronic (E/E) Virtual Development, the Cloud HIL Centre plays a foundational role in delivering continuous integration, faster release cycles and system reliability.
This new centre marks a strategic step in the Tata Elxsi–Suzuki partnership, complementing the success of the Pune ODC and anchoring long-term engineering collaboration for future mobility programs worldwide.
Katsuhiro Kato, Director and Executive VP, Suzuki said, “The SUZUKI-TATA ELXSI Cloud HIL Centre is a new base that leverages Tata Elxsi’s expertise and deep experience to build an advanced and efficient development system. We hope that Suzuki will promote virtualisation to realise minimisation of energy and contribute to the development of next-generation mobility significantly.”
Manoj Raghavan, CEO and MD, Tata Elxsi said, “We thank Kato-san and Suzuki Motor Corporation for their continued trust. This new Cloud HIL Center builds on the strong foundation of our Pune ODC and marks a forward leap in our SDV-focused collaboration. It reflects our shared vision for sustainable and smarter mobility.”
