“We designed the platform to work entirely on-premises and at the edge, ensuring that end customers’ data remains secure and private. Our vision is to empower every vehicle owner with an AI assistant that is not only powerful but also respects their privacy,” averred Kogo Co-Founder Praveer Kochhar.

With the ability to integrate seamlessly into the existing infrastructure of automotive manufacturers, this platform promises to redefine how vehicles interact with their owners. From voice-controlled operations to advanced task automation, the Universal Assistant is poised to lead the way in automotive AI innovation.

Hindustan Zinc Limited, India’s largest and the world’s second-largest integrated zinc producer, showcased its new zinc die casting alloy product range HZDA 3 and HZDA 5 (Hindustan Zinc Die Casting Alloy) at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025. Along with the world’s largest zinc product portfolios, the company also displayed lead, silver and value-added products at the event at Pragati Maidan in Stall 6 – Hall 11.

The company's zinc die casting alloys are designed to meet the changing demands of the automobile industry. They are specifically made for the hot chamber die casting process. The main manufacturer of these alloys, which are otherwise imported into the nation, is Hindustan Zinc, which is often referred to as ZAMAK in the marketplace. Die casting alloys from Hindustan Zinc provide outstanding castability, long-term dimensional stability, quick machining and excellent plating, painting and chromate treatment finishing. Higher strength, electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance and dimensional tolerance are all provided HZDA 3 and HZDA 5.

Hindustan Zinc's low-carbon ‘green’ zinc, known as ‘EcoZen’, was another major attraction at the event. It has a 75 percent lower carbon footprint than traditionally produced zinc and can save around 400 kg of carbon emissions when galvanising one tonne of steel. Silver improves conductivity and efficiency in automobile electronics, such as switches and relays, whereas lead is essential for automobile batteries, components and radiation shielding.

Arun Misra, CEO and Whole-time Director, Hindustan Zinc Limited, said, “The automotive industry is at the forefront of shaping a sustainable future, and Hindustan Zinc is proud to be a partner in this journey. We are committed to delivering innovative, high-quality solutions that not only meet but exceed the industry’s expectations. Our vast product portfolio will play a pivotal role in driving efficiency, sustainability and design excellence in automotive manufacturing. We are excited to showcase our diverse metals at Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, a platform that mirrors our vision of co-creating a future beyond boundaries.”

ZF showcased the EasyTurn suspension strut axle concept for the first time in India. This advanced axle design expands the steering angle of a conventional front axle from approximately 40-45 degree to an impressive 80 degrees.

EasyTurn transforms larger vehicle models into highly agile entities, allowing them to navigate tight parking spaces and perform U-turns in exceptionally confined areas, equivalent to the width of soccer goal.  This significant advancement improves the turning radius for a typical midsize passenger car up to 30 percent, simplifying numerous urban driving scenarios.

Aligned with the global shift towards sustainable mobility, EasyTurn is compatible with rear-wheel drive vehicles commonly seen in electric cars. Additionally, it fits seamlessly with MacPherson axle systems, which cater to around 80 percent of modern vehicle platforms, showcasing its suitability for widespread market adoption.

"EasyTurn represents a major leap forward in our commitment to innovative mobility solutions," says ZF Group India President Akash Passey. "By increasing the steering angle to an unprecedented level, we provide enhanced agility and efficiency that meet the demands of urban environments and contribute to a sustainable future for mobility,” he added.

The innovative EasyTurn axle system offers substantial benefits for both passenger and cargo vehicles, particularly in congested urban areas. It excels in narrow alleys, construction sites, parking spaces, traffic jams and loading zones, delivering nearly effortless turning and parking manoeuvres.

ZF continues to enhance vehicle technology, driving forward the next generation of mobility solutions that meet the demands of modern transportation. With EasyTurn, ZF sets a new standard in vehicle steering capability, expanding possibilities for vehicle design, driving experiences and redefining India’s mobility.
