A Leap Forward in Electric Powertrain Design
In a bold move to shape the future of electric vehicles, Valeo and PanGood have teamed up to create a next-generation Axial Flux Generator system. This collaboration combines Valeo’s deep-rooted expertise in power electronics with PanGood’s cutting-edge axial flux motor technology. The result is a revolutionary 2-in-1 generator that integrates both motor and inverter. This innovation is not only lighter and more compact, but also perfectly suited for Extended Range Electric Vehicles (EREVs), which are quickly becoming a preferred solution for sustainable driving without compromising performance or practicality.
Designed for Performance, Efficiency, and Scalability
As China continues to lead in electric vehicle innovation, the demand for smarter, more efficient powertrain systems is rising. EREVs offer an optimal middle ground between range, power, and environmental impact. The Valeo-PanGood partnership taps into this market need by introducing a system that maximizes energy use while minimizing bulk. The axial flux design allows the generator to maintain high performance without the need for heavy components. Thanks to a direct-drive architecture, the system also reduces mechanical complexity and improves overall reliability.
Unlocking New Possibilities in EREV Technology
Both companies have voiced strong confidence in the success of this partnership. Valeo’s CEO highlights the role of axial flux in creating modular, scalable solutions, while PanGood’s founder emphasizes its unmatched power-to-weight ratio. Their combined strengths pave the way for more flexible and efficient EREV designs. With up to 50% reduction in size and weight, and efficiency peaking at 97%, the new generator sets a benchmark for the industry. It enables manufacturers to push boundaries without added cost or complexity, offering a true plug-and-play solution.
Compact Power That Drives the Future
Axial flux motors are transforming how electric drive units are built. By prioritizing compactness, efficiency, and system integration, this new technology helps automakers extend vehicle range while keeping design sleek and practical. The Valeo-PanGood generator represents a major leap forward, giving EREVs the power to perform without compromise. This marks a pivotal moment in the evolution of electric mobility, where smarter, lighter, and more adaptable solutions are not just possible—they’re ready for the road.
