Electric vehicle manufacturer, BorgWarner, secures a new electric cross differential project in China for electric vehicles.
In the rapidly evolving electric vehicle market, traditional powertrain technologies are transitioning towards advanced electrification solutions. One such solution is BorgWarner's electric cross differential (eXD) technology, designed to improve vehicle stability and performance across varying friction conditions.
The eXD technology showcases superior handling performance, dynamically controlling power distribution between the wheels to enhance cornering and improve traction capabilities. On dry roads, the eXD transfers more power to the outer wheels for enhanced cornering performance, while on slippery surfaces such as ice, snow, or mud, it limits power to slipping wheels and reallocates torque to wheels with better traction, ensuring stability and control during high-speed driving, rapid acceleration, and sharp turns.
Isabelle McKenzie, Vice President of BorgWarner Inc., stated that the eXD technology improves vehicle stability in various driving conditions. The technology has proven effective in high-performance combustion vehicles and is now being expanded to electric vehicles to enhance the driving experience for electric vehicle users.
Key advantages and applications of the eXD technology include improved handling and stability, traction control adapted to road conditions, and enhanced performance across varying friction levels. Real-time slip control optimizes traction whether on dry pavement or slippery surfaces, supporting safer driving in diverse environments. The system recognizes different grip levels and adjusts power accordingly, preventing wheel slip and improving acceleration and control.
BorgWarner has secured a new program for its eXD technology with a leading Chinese OEM, indicating its growing importance in the electric vehicle market. The eXD technology will be used in electric vehicles in China, contributing to safer, more responsive, and higher-performance electric drivetrains by intelligently managing torque distribution tailored to real-time frictional and driving conditions.
In summary, BorgWarner's eXD technology offers significant advantages in electric vehicles by dynamically controlling power distribution between the wheels to improve handling, traction, and safety. Its ability to adapt to varying friction conditions during driving makes it an invaluable tool for electric vehicle manufacturers seeking to meet increasing performance and safety demands.
