GKN eDrive tech powering 13 more car models

LONDON: GKN Automotive is strengthening its eDrive technology leadership as 13 more electrified models from 10 leading global brands enter the market, powered by its systems.

The new platforms span four major global automotive manufacturers and range from premium four-wheel drive SUVs to an iconic electric city car.

The technologies on these models include GKN Automotive’s compact three-in-one eDrive systems. These systems bring together advances in electric motors, transmission, traction inverters, software and controls.

The milestone comes a year after the announcement that GKN Automotive has over one million eAxles on the road and is the result of collaboration with the world’s leading automotive manufacturers to fully integrate advanced eDrive systems into electric and hybrid cars.

The first car using GKN Automotive eDrive technology was put into production over 20 years ago.
