AMBITION
What are the specific scientific and technical objectives of sys2WHEEL?
Objective 1
sys2WHEEL will reduce cost in mass production by at least 20% through components becoming obsolete and through reduction of wiring costs as time-sensitive networks will be applicable.
Objective 2
The powertrain efficiency will be increased by improved e-motor windings, advanced rare-earth magnets, reduced powertrain rotating parts, reduced losses, advanced control and weight reduction.
It will be demonstrated with a full size hardware and software implementation into two existing commercial demonstrator vehicles.
Objective 3
Affordability and user-friendliness will be achieved by enhanced modularity and packaging. Automotive quality will be addressed by advanced fail-operational safety and ISO 26262 compliance, modular and scalable technologies and lowered total cost of ownership.
Space-saving approaches in sys2WHEEL lead to more freedom for batteries, cargo and drivers.
