MAHLE says it has developed the most durable electric motor; new cooling concept

Green Car Congress

The traction motor can run indefinitely with high performance due to its new cooling concept. This resilience is achieved by the new MAHLE electric motor through the use of an innovative integrated oil cooling, which not only makes it more robust but also allows the waste heat generated to be used in the vehicle’s complete system.
