Vitesco Technologies has signed agreements with Groupe PSA and Hyundai to supply fully integrated electric axle drive systems for unnamed volume-production models.
Production of the new electric drive system at Vitesco Technologies plant in Tianjin, China, has already started.
“Our new integrated axle drive unit and our extensive experience in electrifying drive units have made Vitesco Technologies the partner of choice for carmakers striving to be at the forefront of e-mobility,” said Vitesco CEO, Andreas Wolf.
PSA has selected Vitesco Technologies’ new electric drive system for its e-CMP modular electric platform, on which compact battery electric vehicle models such as the Peugeot e-208 and Opel Corsa-e will be built.

Hyundai has made Vitesco the supplier of choice in China through its joint venture, Beijing Hyundai. Two models will be equipped with Vitesco’s electric drive system: the Encino compact SUV and the Lafesta sedan.
In addition, other vehicle manufacturers have chosen Vitesco Technologies to supply drive systems for battery electric cars which are planned to launch during the next 12 months.
The electric axle drive system will also power German start-up Sono Motors’ Sion battery electric vehicle.
