New Bosch 230 Electric Motor for Commercial & Medium Duty Vehicles
- Bosch unveils New 230 Electric Motor (Powertrain) for Commercial & Medium-duty Electric Vehicles on September 21st 2021 at Motor Bella 2021 Auto-Expo
- The Auto Expo Motor Bella started on 21-September-2021 & will end on 26-September-2021. The Auto Expo is taking place at Pontiac City Michigan
- The new 230 electric motor has a rated voltage of 800 volts and is designed for long service life
Hairpin winding technology is used in the stator as well as combined oil-water cooling to optimizing the continuous power density to enable a compact design and easy integration into electric rigid axles
- The rotor and stator are internally oil-cooled and the active parts are installed in a water-cooling jacket
- The new 230 Electric Motor will be available in power ratings between 150 KW and 230 KW Continuous Output
- Desingned especially for Commercial & Medium-duty Electric Vehicles
Bosch uses an advanced inverter with silicon carbide (SiC) technology
Silicon carbide chips used in power electronics can improve the efficiency of the battery powertrain by as much as 6%
New Bosch 230 electric motor and inverter (When Combined) with silicon carbide technology offers system efficiency up to 97%.
- Bosch is the first one to make this possible for commercial vehicle applications, resulting in increased Range or saved Battery Capacity
