BorgWarner has secured a contract from a Chinese original equipment manufacturer (OEM) to supply its aluminium-wire electric motor technology, marking the technology's market debut. The start of production is scheduled for Q4 of 2026.

The product incorporates aluminium-wire hairpin winding technology for use in hybrid vehicles, specifically as generator motors and traction motors for auxiliary drive systems.

Compared with copper-wire motors of matching specifications, the aluminium-wire unit maintains peak torque and peak power levels while reducing wire weight by more than 60 percent and lowering costs by over 80 percent. The contract extends a 15-year supplier relationship between BorgWarner and the vehicle manufacturer.

Isabelle McKenzie, Vice-President of BorgWarner Inc. and President and General Manager of PowerDrive Systems, said, “We are proud to introduce BorgWarner’s aluminium-wire eMotor technology to the market through this program and to further strengthen our long-standing relationship with the customer. The technology combines aluminium conductors with BorgWarner’s hairpin winding expertise to deliver significant weight and cost benefits. Supported by our comprehensive local product engineering and manufacturing capabilities, we have optimised the motor design, manufacturing processes and connection technologies to meet the requirements of hybrid generator and auxiliary drive applications.”

BorgWarner has secured three conquest business contracts with a powertrain technology manufacturer to supply turbocharging systems for light-vehicle petrol platforms across South America and Europe.

The agreements cover the supply of one variable turbine geometry (VTG) turbocharger unit and two wastegate turbocharger variants, with series production scheduled to commence in 2027.

The VTG turbocharger system is engineered for Miller-cycle gasoline engines operating at exhaust gas temperatures up to 1050deg Celsius, providing boost pressure control and efficiency across operational speed ranges.

BorgWarner's wastegate turbocharger technology features scalable compressor and turbine stages designed with single-scroll, twin-scroll, or dual-volute turbine configurations. The wastegate units incorporate pneumatic or electric actuation options alongside integrated compressor recirculation valves to support fuel economy requirements and emissions compliance.

Dr. Volker Weng, Vice-President of BorgWarner Inc. and President and General Manager of Turbos and Thermal Technologies, said, "We value our longstanding relationship with this global leader in powertrain technology and the opportunity to support its evolving business and broader commodity strategy. These contracts reflect the trust we have established with the customer and the strength of our offerings, including competitive solutions and deep technical expertise. We look forward to continuing to support the customer with innovations that deliver lasting value."

German tier-1 supplier ZF has developed the High Revolution Drive, a 3-in-1 electric drive system capable of reaching rotational speeds of up to 30,000 rpm. Designed as a variant of the company's modular SELECT platform, the unit integrates an electric motor, power electronics and a two-stage spur gear transmission with a reduction ratio of approximately 18:1. The system delivers a peak power output of 200 kW and peak wheel torque of 3,500 Nm.

Compared to a conventional SELECT drive operating at 18,000 rpm, the High Revolution Drive reduces overall installation space and weight by nearly 25 percent, while reducing required magnet mass by 50 percent. The architecture is scalable across power outputs ranging from 150 kW to 200 kW for 400-volt and 800-volt vehicle platforms, achieving a system efficiency of nearly 93 per cent. ZF is engaging with vehicle manufacturers regarding deployment, with volume production targeted for 2030.

Thomas Meiser, Head of the E-Mobility Business Unit, ZF, said, "The High Revolution Drive draws on ZF s full systems expertise. Rather than optimising individual components in isolation, we systematically coordinate the electric motor, power electronics and transmission. Robustness and low noise and vibration levels were stringent development targets from the outset. To achieve this, we considered the electric motor, gearing, bearings and tooth geometry as an integrated system. For the configuration presented, 30,000 rpm is the economic and technical sweet spot. With SELECT, we do not have to start from scratch for every new drive variant. We use our modular system to tailor new concepts to different customer requirements."
