GKN Automotive and Delta Electronics are working together to advance the development of next generation integrated three-in-one e-drive systems. This will involve integrating Delta Electronics converters with GKN Automotives e-motor and gearbox systems. The work will focus on the development of two new integrated e-drive families for application across different torque classes for future hybrid and electric vehicles.<\/p>\n
This partnership is expected to flourish as the two have similar goals, focusing on weight and packaging reduction, and simplifying OEM assembly processes for easier and better quality component installations.<\/p>\n
Liam Butterworth, CEO of GKN Automotive, said, The e-drive market continues to accelerate as manufacturers are required to meet increasingly stringent emissions regulations demanding technological progression and speed. Our collaboration with Delta represents a significant milestone in the expansion of our portfolio of scalable, integrated three-in-one e-drive solutions and our capabilities in rapidly bringing new cost competitive technologies to market.<\/p>\n
It is expected that the new three-in-one units will be ready for production for various vehicle types in three years. This will cover A-segment city cars to D-segment executive cars and SUVs, supporting a range of torque outputs from 2,000Nm to 3,800Nm, with nominal power outputs of between 80kW and 155kW.<\/p>\n
Simon Chang, COO of Delta Electronics, added, Delta is dedicated to enabling low-carbon green transportation by providing EV powertrain solutions and power electronics products, including traction inverters, traction motors, onboard chargers, DC\/DC converters, and EV charging solutions to the market. Were pleased to be working with leading company GKN Automotive in producing integrated e-drive units for the next generation of electric and hybrid vehicles.<\/p>\n
