BorgWarner adds to its leadership position as a propulsion system supplier for combustion, hybrid and electric vehicles.
BorgWarner launches additional applications of its electric vehicle transmission produced locally for the rapidly growing Chinese electric vehicle market. The company develops and launches a key technology for hybrid and electric vehicles to provide cabin heating with industry-first dual-zone functionality and to facilitate superior energy management for enhanced battery-powered driving range. The company’s one-way clutches, HY-VO® chains and silent chains are applied in hybrid propulsion systems from Chevrolet, Chrysler and Suzuki. Its powerful High Voltage Hairpin electric motors propel electric and hybrid buses including Scania’s Citywide hybrid bus.
Featuring tunable launch characteristics and scalable torque capacity in a compact, modular design, the company produces advanced dual-clutch modules for several domestic automakers in China. BorgWarner manufactures its first regulated two-stage (R2S®) turbocharging system for the Chinese passenger vehicle market. The 10 millionth pressure sensor glow plug (PSG) for diesel engines is also produced.
To complement its power electronics and electrified propulsion solutions, BorgWarner acquires Sevcon, Inc. Investments are also made in Autotech Ventures to gain access to global start-ups and new technologies aimed at revolutionizing mobility.
