This project aims to develop a compact, efficient, highly integrated electro-mechanical powertrain, production optimized to deliver key cost reduction goals. The partners will focus on optimizing the integrated unit for an entry power level of a typical urban vehicle. In parallel they will assess scalability potential to meet the performance criteria of other platforms. Innovative simulation and optimization software tools will be used early in the concept phase to assess optimal design variations, the output of which will be a key input into determining how difficult they will be to scale between differing vehicle and system sizes. Built up of prototypes and implementation in a demo car is planned.
