"We are honored to support these three customers, with whom we
have valued relationships, by delivering our eDM to power their
vehicles," said Dr. Stefan Demmerle,
President and General Manager of PowerDrive Systems, BorgWarner.
"We are proud that our eDM is being recognized by customers for its
extraordinary performance. We will continue to invest in research
and development of our electric drive products, to further our
mission of helping develop a clean, energy-efficient world."
A key benefit of the eDM is that it provides strong main drive
power for both hybrid and electric vehicles. The high-precision
gear process enables it to reduce system losses, improve NVH and
increase power density. Its compact package with a lightweight
aluminum housing and simplified parts, makes it easier to integrate
into vehicles. Designed for a balance among power, torque,
packaging and efficiency, the eDM delivers efficiency of more than
95 percent, excellent continuous power and extended mileage/range
while providing a smooth, quiet driving experience.
In terms of placement, BorgWarner's eDM is suited for both front
and rear axles of NEVs. Of the three models mentioned above, the
eDM is integrated into the front axle of two of the vehicles. The
JMC-Ford Territory EV, an all-electric SUV, delivers outstanding
performance and range, with motor torque of up to 280 Nm and peak
power of 120kW. In the Territory EV, the eDM is integrated in the
front axle, along with its Co-Pilot360 advanced driving assistance
system for peace of mind while driving. AIWAYS integrates the
BorgWarner eDM into the front axle of its SUV U5 as a key component
allowing for worry-free travel. The eDM delivers motor torque of up
to 315Nm, and peak power of 120kW in the SUV U5. The Leading Ideal
One, the extended range electric large SUV, showcases the
flexibility of the eDM system by integrating it with the rear axle.
In this range extended electric vehicle, the eDM produces up to
290Nm of torque and peak power of 140 kW.
Production has already kicked off for these projects at
BorgWarner's Beijing and
Wuhan, China facilities.
