The Hidden Tech: Unlocking the Performance Potential of Advanced Electric Drives in Heavy-Duty Apps

A new electric truck project may look promising at the pre-production trials, but it often faces serious challenges before entering seriouseproduction. The motor may provide the required power, the battery pack may deliver the needed range, and the prototype may pass the initial driving tests. Nevertheless, not all details are revealed under ideal conditions – when the truck is operating with a full load, heavy traffic, extreme temperatures, and more. In most cases, there is one weak link in such vehicles – an electric drive that has to perform at its best under the most strenuous conditions. Therefore, for OEMs launching heavy-duty electric trucks, innovation in electric drives emerges […]
