Hyundai Mobis has developed a 160-kilowatt (kW) power electric system for general-purpose electric vehicles (EVs), in a move to build a wider drive system lineup covering various types of EVs, the company said Thursday. The auto parts maker already completed development for its high-performance 250-kW PE system and plans to do the same for a 120-kW power electric system tailored for small mobility vehicles by the first half this year. Upon its completion, the company will be able to cover power electric systems for all types of EVs. The power electric system is considered a core auto component equivalent to the powertrain of an internal combustion engine. The system consists of a motor, inverter and reduction gear. Hyundai Mobis focused on standardizing key auto components and modularizing them during the development of its proprietary system. These include the stator for the drive motor, the inverter, and the power module, which is a bundle of power semiconductors. This modularized power electric system offers advantages in terms of scalability, as it can be applied to various vehicle m
