The chief feature of the concept lies in the clutch casing which houses a permanent magnet electric motor (axial flux discoid motor in the case of the prototype). That means finding economically viable solutions that our customers can afford. These tend to be bulky, heavy and costly, and consequently ill-suited to small cars.
