For several years, the automobile industry has grappled with a straightforward question: Is it possible to produce a powerful, efficient, and mass-producible synchronous motor that contains no rare-earth elements at all? For every 100 kilowatts of peak power, an EV motor uses an average of 1.2 It’s that simple.
