China engineering and production delivery for clean mobility

Murugappa is the parent group, TICMPL is its China engineering company, and Montra is the market-facing brand. We focus on controller and system capability for electric three-wheelers, light trucks, heavy trucks, and agricultural machinery.

Group and Platform

Who we are

TICMPL is the company established by Murugappa in China and carries the R&D, validation, and delivery work for the clean mobility platform in this market, while Montra serves as the outward-facing brand across vehicle programs.

Backed by the Murugappa industrial foundation and the TI Clean Mobility platform, we focus on controller and system solutions for electric three-wheelers, agricultural machinery, light trucks, and heavy trucks, with an engineering loop that runs from requirements and functional safety to software development, validation, and production launch.

Group scale figures referenced here are based on Murugappa public disclosures as of November 2025.

Engineering Capability

Engineering capability from controller development to production delivery

Across controller and system development, we combine engineering method, validation capability, and industrialization into one repeatable delivery chain.

01
Engineering development
Covers system architecture, functional safety, AUTOSAR software, and control-algorithm development for multiple electrification platforms.
02
Testing and validation
Builds layered quality control from code gates and integration regression to HIL, bench, environmental, and vehicle validation.
03
Production launch
Supports customized controller industrialization through prototypes, tooling, traceability, and ramp-up for electrified programs.
04
Engineering Service
Supports cross-region project governance, bilingual collaboration, and issue closure across group and customer programs.
Controller Engineering
Built for controller development, validation, and launch
Engineering Support
OEM and supplier-side experience supports parallel multi-platform delivery.
Validation Environment
Climate chambers, HIL, benches, and tooling close the validation loop.
China Engineering Hub

China R&D Center

The TICMPL China R&D Center develops and manufactures controllers for new-energy vehicles across electric three-wheelers, agricultural machinery, light trucks, and heavy trucks.

The team combines OEM and supplier-side engineering experience with programmable climate chambers, dynamometer capability, and a full development toolchain to support both group platforms and external customer programs.
