This motor is one of the recent creation that would change the whole EV industry by setting an extremely high bench mark. Thank you for taking the time to print and explain the details of this motor. I wish they can give a nickname to it, its well deserved.
Awesome video! Very clear explanations on that awesome EV Motor technology! Differential inside the rotor, that's genius! Thanks for sharing this video 👍👍👍
Fascinating approach. I wonder if they can extend the function of the differential by adding disk brakes before the planetary gear system for use with traction control system. It seems to me the lower torque before the planetary gear system would be an advantage.
It wouldn't be worth it, simply because of the speed that inner differential is going. You would need to increase the rotating mass SIGNIFICANTLY for no significant gain. Lucid's traction control and torque vectoring system is unlike anything else on the market.
Bevel-gear differentials routinely have from two to four pinion gears. This one has four, as noted at 9:08, probably for sufficient torque capacity in the small size... but there are also conventional differentials in live beam axles that have four pinion gears.
L’iniziativa è esatta, si tratta solo di completare il sistema con l’applicazione del “principio di minima azione” sulla trazione di generatori elettrodinamici applicati sui planetari. Mi spiego. L’energia cinetica degli indotti, deve eguagliare la potenziale degli induttori, tale che sul portatreno si ottenga il rendimento con minimo consumo. Quello che si potrebbe definire: sistema ad autosostentamento. Complimenti e cordiali saluti.
Not needed for street applications. And they have dual motors in the Sapphire to drive the wheels independently. Otherwise, it would probably just brake one wheel in a single motor configuration.
