Magna will supply North American OEM with 800v rear eDrive systems

Magna, an automotive supplier, has been awarded a contract from a North America-based OEM to provide a specialized primary rear eDrive system for a high-end niche vehicle platform.

The advanced system, a variant of Magna’s 800V eDS Duo, boasts 726 kW of power and 8,000 Nm of torque, integrating two e-motors, two inverters, and two gearboxes into a single package.

Magna’s role includes the design of the gearbox and housing, the cooling system, and the integration of the e-motors and inverters to ensure reliability, efficiency, and continuous power levels. The system will be manufactured at Magna’s facility in Ramos, Mexico, with serial production set to begin in the coming years.
