SHANGHAI, April 15, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- BorgWarner, a
global product leader in clean and efficient technology solutions
for combustion, hybrid and electric vehicles, highlights its
innovative electrification solutions at the 18th lnternational
Automobile and Manufacturing Technology Exhibition (Auto Shanghai
2019) April 18-25, at the Shanghai
National Exhibition and Convention Center. BorgWarner's vision of a
clean energy-efficient world complements the show's theme "Creating
a Better Life." BorgWarner's industry-leading electrification
solutions will be on display including the latest fully integrated
electric drive module eAxle iDM, Onboard Battery Chargers (OBC),
and on- and off-axis P2 hybrid systems, which demonstrate its
commitment to providing customized solutions for applications
ranging from passenger cars, light and heavy trucks, to commercial
and off-road vehicles.

"Hybrids and electric vehicles have experienced robust growth
during the past few years, in fact, it is estimated that hybrid and
electric car production will reach about 32 million in 2023,
accounting for roughly 30% of total global market," said Frederic
Lissalde, President and Chief Executive Officer, BorgWarner.
"BorgWarner has always been at the forefront of developing
innovative technologies for hybrid and electric systems, and now
has a series of solutions including the eAxle iDM integrated
electric drive module, Onboard Battery Chargers, P2 hybrid
solutions, P1+P3 hybrid solutions and 48-volt hybrid technologies.
As a trusted partner of global auto manufacturers, we will continue
to be a leader in propulsion systems solutions for combustion,
hybrid and electric vehicles."
The debut of key products for electric cars
The eAxle iDM is displayed for the first time in China. Featuring specially developed power
electronics, it can easily be integrated at the front or the rear
axle of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles depending on
the architecture and the application. The solution integrates
highly efficient power electronics with an advanced transmission
system and industry-leading drive motor technology featuring
BorgWarner's efficient bar wound stator solution to form a scalable
compact package. With the eAxle iDM, BorgWarner delivers a product
family of highly integrated propulsion solutions to drive
customers' hybrid and electric vehicles, marking a big step toward
a clean and energy efficient world.
The OBC, which also makes its debut at the show, can be used on
both plug-in hybrid and pure electric vehicles. It meets the
waterproof and dustproof requirements of IP6K9K, and complies with
the safety standard of ISO26262. Featuring advanced power
electronics and scalable AC input range, the OBC supports two-rated
power sections of 7.4 kilowatts and 11 kilowatts. In addition, the
three-phase electrical input enables more powerful, efficient and
faster battery charging.
Thermal management is another major challenge in electric
vehicles. BorgWarner assembles a range of thermal management
solutions including cabin and battery heaters. The battery heater's
fast response time enables optimal battery and cabin temperature
management. The high-voltage cabin heaters create a comfortable
interior made possible by its dual-zone heating and core
temperature sensing abilities.
Innovative P2 technologies
With its wide range of products and solutions for the hybrid
system, BorgWarner is dedicated to helping customers meet evolving
demand from the growing trends of autonomous driving and connected
cars. During Auto Shanghai 2019, BorgWarner highlights its on- and
off-axis P2 modules, which provide OEMs the flexibility to place
the electric motor where there is space in existing architectures.
The modules also facilitate fast-to-market hybridization by
enabling pure electric driving as well as hybrid functionalities
such as stop/start, regenerative braking and supplemental electric
propulsion. In the on-axis configuration, the electric motor is
located directly on the main axis enabling easy integration and a
compact overall package. It also allows for several clutch options
and improves engine performance. The off-axis configuration places
the electric motor parallel to the main axis for an even more
compact axial package, which minimizes adjustments needed to
incorporate with existing engines and transmissions. BorgWarner's
P2 modules are capable of decoupling the engine for limited
pure-electric driving, making it a desirable solution for hybrid
architectures. They also enable easy integration and a compact
overall package, offering high power density and increased fuel
efficiency.
BorgWarner's technical experts and engineers are available
throughout the show to answer questions and share insights on the
company's latest products and solutions at Hall 5.2, Booth 5BG001
of the Shanghai National Exhibition and Convention Center.
