This is Schaeffler’s third PACE Award win in the past five years, two of which were for e-mobility solutions. We also received an Innovation Partnership Award for collaborating with Ford in the development of the system.
- The hybride module is designed with an electric motor and a disconnect clutch mounted between an engine and transmission. Furthermore we were able to produce the module on an existing transmission assembly line by integrating the electric motor with the torque converter.
