Ampere’s advanced Battery Management System integrates seamlessly with LFP (Lithium Iron Phosphate) battery chemistry to ensure unmatched thermal stability and safety. Unlike conventional Li-ion solutions, Ampere’s BMS delivers optimised energy utilisation, real-time monitoring, and predictive intelligence.
The 9 Smart Features:
-
Advanced Thermal Management (IP67 protection)
-
Smart Cell Balancing for efficiency
-
IoT-enabled real-time diagnostics
-
Overcharge/Over-discharge protection
-
Temperature & active cooling monitoring
-
Isolation monitoring for safety compliance
-
Predictive maintenance alerts
-
Energy recovery for range boost
-
AIS 156 safety compliance
These features collectively redefine EV battery reliability, giving riders more confidence and manufacturers a future-ready platform.
Award-Winning Real-World Performance
The Ampere Nexus, powered by this BMS, demonstrated its robustness by completing a 10,000 km journey from Kashmir to Kanyakumari – showcasing reliability across India’s diverse terrains.
This milestone, coupled with the Bike India “Electric Scooter of the Year 2025” award, validates Ampere’s position as a pioneer in EV battery safety technology.
Why LFP Batteries + Smart BMS = The Future of EVs
Ampere’s shift to LFP chemistry paired with intelligent BMS provides:
-
Enhanced Safety – virtually eliminates thermal runaway risks
-
30% Longer Life – extended battery cycle performance
-
All-Weather Reliability – performs in -40°C to 60°C
-
Fast Charging Capability – smart protocols reduce charging downtime
This combo enables Ampere to offer 5-year / 75,000 km battery warranties – a first in India’s EV two-wheeler segment.
Market Impact: Ampere’s Growth Story
With this BMS, Ampere achieved 53% YoY sales growth in Jan 2025, climbing to 5th place among India’s EV two-wheeler OEMs. Popular scooters, such as the Magnus Neo, Magnus EX, and Nexus, have driven this momentum.
-
4.2% market share improvement in India’s EV two-wheeler market
-
Demand surge for BMS-equipped models, especially in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities
Manufacturing Expansion: Scaling for the Future
To meet rising demand, Ampere is setting up a dedicated in-house battery assembly line in Tamil Nadu by 2027 with a 400,000-unit annual capacity. This will:
-
Strengthen supply chain independence
-
Lower costs for consumers
-
Accelerate next-gen BMS development
IoT-Driven Smart Mobility
Ampere’s BMS is not just about safety – it’s about connected mobility. IoT integration enables:
-
Real-time battery health tracking

Predictive maintenance & remote diagnostics
-
Performance analytics & riding insights
-
Anti-theft GPS features
-
OTA software upgrades for continuous improvements
This ensures future-proof EV ownership for riders.
Battery Swapping & Commercial Fleet Integration
Ampere recently partnered with Indofast Energy (Indian Oil + SUN Mobility JV) to launch the Magnus SW.S battery-swapping EV. Designed for gig workers, it supports over 100 km daily use with IoT-powered BMS for reliability.
This move signals Ampere’s readiness for fleet electrification and mobility-as-a-service markets.
Ampere Leading India’s EV Battery Race
Ampere’s 9-feature Smart BMS is more than just a technical upgrade – it’s a strategic leap forward in safety, efficiency, and sustainability. By combining LFP chemistry, IoT smart connectivity, and award-winning performance, Ampere is setting the benchmark for India’s electric mobility revolution.
With manufacturing expansion, future-proof R&D, and growing consumer trust, Ampere is poised to accelerate past rivals and cement its place as a household EV brand for India’s families.
