The gears of change are turning in mechanical engineering, powered by the brilliant minds of women who refuse to be confined by stereotypes. Sudeshna Roy Pratihar, Deputy General Manager – Crash Structures, Sustainability, and Manufacturing Simulations at Mercedes-Benz Research and Development India, embodies a truth often overlooked: success in STEM is born from passion, perseverance, and intellect, not chromosomes. Despite being told that mechanical engineering wasn’t for women, Sudeshna chose to defy the odds. She champions the idea that diversity leads to better solutions and reminds us that it’s not about being a "woman engineer", but simply an engineer – breaking barriers, driving change, and shaping the future. #SheInspires #TogetherForExcellence #LifeAtMBRDI

At Mercedes-Benz Research and Development India, we are constantly pushing the boundaries of innovation to accelerate the future of #electricmobility. In line with our vision of a carbon-neutral world, we are pioneering technologies that enhance the performance, safety, and efficiency of electric vehicles. This #WorldEVDay, we are proud to highlight some of the key advancements driving this transformation. Our charging infrastructure is getting smarter. Dynamic charging profiles now adapt to the specific needs of the vehicle, allowing for faster and more efficient charging. Additionally, we are optimising energy management at charging stations to enable multiple vehicles to charge simultaneously without compromising on speed. In the development process, we are taking proactive steps to identify and fix performance issues early on. By front-loading Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) testing, we streamline development, ensuring that our vehicles perform reliably in real-world environments. We are also transforming high-power stations into multiple low-power units, increasing efficiency and accessibility for electric vehicle users. Each of these innovations brings us closer to a sustainable, electric future. #ElectricVehicles #Innovation #Sustainability
