eConnect
Disconnect system for electric four-wheel drives
Key Facts
Increased efficiencyUp to 90% less drag losses: 5-10% more rangeShort switching timeCoupling in 50 to 250 ms, decoupling in less than 50 msHighest comfortEstablished technology: below the threshold of perception
eConnect is a flexible solution for vehicles with two electrically driven axles. The system allows the secondary axle to be decoupled to save energy as long as its drive power is not required. This reduces mechanical drag losses by up to 90 percent. If necessary, eConnect switches on the second drive within milliseconds. eConnect reduces energy consumption and increases the range by five to ten percent, depending on the overall vehicle load.
