E-motors & controllers for electric traction
Customers developing next-generation electric powertrains face the major challenge of integrating powerful electric e-motors and controllers into environments tightly constrained by weight and space whilst minimising vehicle costs.
An electric drive unit (EDU) that integrates a YASA e-motor and controller together with an FEV designed 2-speed gearbox, clutch and electric actuators in one compact package is shown. This 2-speed EDU provides high efficiency driving in both urban and highway driving, enabling significant savings in battery capacity and cost over single speed drives.
EDU Concept – specification overview
