ELECTRAAX eAxle

ELECTRAAX powered by Driventic
ELECTRAAX

High-efficiency, lightweight electric drive axle for medium-duty trucks and buses

 

Features and Benefits


ELECTRAAX, created in partnership with Driventic, is a high-efficiency electric drive axle engineered to increase range or reduce battery requirements for Class 6-7 medium-duty vehicles. This ePowertrain design integrates the axle, gearbox, motor, and inverter into a single optimized system to reduce weight, unlock packaging space, and elevate overall vehicle capability. ELECTRAAX is available in capacities up to 23,000 pounds.

INTEGRATED ePOWERTRAIN

  • Axle, gearbox, motor and inverter integrated into a single optimized system
  • The application-specific architecture allows ELECTRAAX to deliver up to 94% system efficiency
  • Elevated energy efficiency extends vehicle range by up to 40%*

SINGLE-SPEED GEARBOX

  • Smooth drivability without shift quality concerns, optimized for delivery market driving conditions
  • Cylindrical parallel shaft gears reduce losses compared to designs with 90-degree hypoid gearing 
  • Reduced friction relative to multi-speed gearboxes 
  • Increased reliability and reduced complexity through fewer components

MODULAR DESIGN

  • Variety of track width, gear train, suspension and brake options for enhanced flexibility
  • Integrated, fabricated axle framework reduces vehicle weight by up to 357 pounds*
  • Designed for ease of OEM chassis integration
  • Frees up packaging space for additional batteries or other vehicle equipment

HIGH-PERFORMANCE INVERTER

  • Optimized power density
  • Dual-core DSP and dual-core application controller for high control accuracy 
  • ISO 21434 cybersecurity and ISO 26262 functional safety compliant
  • AUTOSAR based software, ECE R10 certified
  • Latest IGBT technology

POWERFUL MOTOR

  • Extended peak torque for sustained, consistent power during acceleration and hill climbs
  • High power efficiency
  • Full motor-torque regenerative braking helps maximize energy recovery
  • Externally mounted for service without disrupting the gear train

*Compared to central drive systems powering traditional drivetrains
