On August 4th, BorgWarner announced that it has secured an electric motor order from a “leading Chinese luxury electric vehicle brand,” but did not disclose the name of the company.
This iDM 220 motor provides up to 250 kW of power and 5,000 N·m of torque, which is indeed very large. The integrated motor includes a transmission and a 400 V silicon inverter. This driver module is compact and supports scalability.
Previously, BorgWarner’s smaller iDM 146 integrated motor (135 kW) won an order from Hyundai in South Korea, and will supply A-class models for the Hyundai Group in 2023.
As for the “leading luxury electric vehicle brand in China,” BorgWarner only mentioned that production will start in the first quarter of 2023. Can you guess which company’s new car this will be?
