There's no replacement for displacement. An adage that's been around as long as the combustion engine, really. But these age-old sayings don't really apply anymore when it comes to electric motors.

Tesla was first to patent a primitive axial-flux electric motor—Nikola Tesla, that is, way back in 1889. It would be 126 years before the concept found its way to a car, the 1,500-horsepower (1,103 ...

Lamborghini’s legacy gas-only machines have been unapologetically loud, brash, and in your face with sonorous symphonies conducted by fuel-guzzling V12 and V10 engines. Today, the brand is in its ...

Axial flux electric motor developer YASA announced it has achieved what it believes to be the highest power density for an electric motor ever, hailing the feat as an unofficial world record. If you ...

Compact axial-flux electric motors are poised to be the next big thing in EV propulsion. These devices are commonly called "pancake" motors because they are flat, thin, and circular, like a pancake or ...

Axial flux motors have really started to make some noise in the electric mobility market of late. Adding to the hype, British market innovator YASA announced that it's opening a state-of-the-art ...

Less than two months after smashing its own (unofficial) record in power density with its proprietary axial flux motor, YASA has unveiled a real-world application of the technology as an in-wheel ...

UK-based Yasa has revealed a potentially game-changing in-wheel electric motor. Based on its record-breaking tiny axial flux motor, the new drive unit prototype can provide over 1,000 hp per wheel.
