OpenDrive-RV™
RISC-V Based EV Controller SoC for Autonomous & Intelligent Mobility
At Excel EVs, our R&D division focuses on building next-generation electric vehicle intelligence using open, secure, and scalable silicon platforms.
Our flagship initiative, OpenDrive-RV™, is a RISC-V based EV Controller System-on-Chip (SoC) designed for autonomous driving, AI vision, image processing, and IoT-enabled vehicles.
OpenDrive-RV™ SoC – R&D Highlights
Unified EV Intelligence Platform
RISC-V CPU Cluster (64-bit + Safety Core)
Vision Processing Unit (VPU) – multi-camera ADAS & perception
Neural Processing Unit (NPU) – AI inference & planning
Sensor Fusion Engine – Radar, LiDAR, IMU, GPS
EV Powertrain Control – Motor control, BMS, regenerative braking
IoT & Security – 5G, OTA updates, Root of Trust
Why This R&D Matters
Today’s autonomous EV platforms suffer from:
Multiple ECUs increasing cost, power usage, and failure points
Heavy reliance on foreign proprietary IP
Limited availability of affordable ADAS for mass-market EVs based on RISK – V
OpenDrive-RV™ addresses these gaps by delivering single-chip EV intelligence.
Why RISC-V for Automotive & National Programs
Open ISA with no licensing or export restrictions
Custom instructions for AI, motor control, and safety
Lower total cost for OEMs
Strong alignment with Make-in-India & sovereign silicon goals
Target Applications
Passenger EVs with ADAS (L2–L4)
2W & 3W EVs for emerging markets
Autonomous delivery and logistics vehicles
Commercial EV fleets
Strategic & defense mobility platforms
