UK-based Yasa has revealed a potentially game-changing in-wheel electric motor. Based on its record-breaking tiny axial flux motor, the new drive unit prototype can provide over 1,000 hp per wheel.

Less than two months after smashing its own (unofficial) record in power density with its proprietary axial flux motor, YASA has unveiled a real-world application of the technology as an in-wheel ...

What if a single innovation could redefine how we think about electric motors, making them not just marginally better but insanely efficient? Imagine an electric vehicle (EV) that accelerates with ...

I’m parked at the back of the grid on Mount Panorama, awaiting the race start, and there are cars ahead of me literally facing backwards. This is not going to go well. As you’d expect, pandemonium ...

The world of electric motor tech moves fast. Just months after YASA claimed an unofficial record for the most power-dense unit ever, the Mercedes-owned company specializing in axial-flux design motors ...

Electric motors may not look like much, as they’re mostly lumps of metal and wires, but the right one can transform how a n EV feels, just like the right set of boring-looking tires can. And Yasa’s ...

A research team has developed a molecular motor which consists of only 16 atoms and rotates reliably in one direction. It could allow energy harvesting at the atomic level. The special feature of the ...

A new chapter in electric motor design may be underway, and it’s being written in the UK. Yasa Motors, based in Britain and owned by Mercedes, has developed a new electric motor that sets a new ...

BMW has a novel way to hold the magnets in place in an axial flux motor, with an eye toward efficiency and long-term durability. Being a central part of the motor core, rotor design is critical to ...

Engines need motor oil to run smoothly. It lubricates moving parts, reduces friction, minimizes wear, regulates engine temperature... it even helps keep the engine clean. That's why it's so important ...

German supplier Continental says it is close to production for wheel hub motors that integrate braking, whether the customer wants disc or drums, or hydraulic or dry brake-by-wire. Conti will package ...
