Navya chooses ABM Greiffenberger motors for shuttles

Navya says ABM Greiffenberger’s three-phase induction motors will allow the company to transport passengers safely in its Autonom shuttle. The AC induction motor comes with an air cooling system and is intended be operated over a wide revolutions per minute (RPM) range. The electric motor has an output of 15 kW in continuous operation with a peak output of 35 kW. The peak torque is 30 newton-metres and the maximum rotational speed is 8,000rpm.

8379 Navya says ABM Greiffenberger’s three-phase induction motors will allow the company to transport passengers safely in its Autonom shuttle. The AC induction motor comes with an air cooling system and is intended be operated over a wide revolutions per minute (RPM) range.


The electric motor has an output of 15 kW in continuous operation with a peak output of 35 kW. The peak torque is 30 newton-metres and the maximum rotational speed is 8,000rpm.

Aymeric Dubois, test engineer, says the motor is maintenance-free which keeps operating costs permanently low.

“Moreover, it is particularly smooth-running and thus provides for low noise emissions,” Dubois adds.

    Maharashtra confirms hyperloop route in India
    Virgin Hyperloop One (VHO) has signed an agreement with the Indian State of Maharashtra to create a route that intends to link central Pune, Navi Mumbai International Airport in 25minutes and connect 26 million people. It aims to eventually support 150 passenger trips annually and save more than 90 million hours of travel time. In addition, an initial pre-feasibility study by VHO indicates that the route could provide socio-economic benefits valued $55m (£39m) over 30 years of operation. It will be deploy

    Mild hybrid 48V vehicles 2017-2027
    Vehicle emissions regulations for 2025 and 2030 are unlikely to be met by conventional vehicle technology as applied to most vehicles beyond small cars, according to IDTechX researchers. Going to strong hybrid and pure electric powertrains involves considerable expense and delay and often totally new platforms. However, an intermediate technology has reached a stage where it can incrementally improve traditional powertrains by replacing the alternator with a reversible 48 V electric machine and adding a

    Here’s HD AV map prepared for 5G
    The emergence of 5G may not be necessary to provide a high-definition map for autonomous driving, says Matt Preyss from Here Technologies. Ben Spencer asks why 5G is a hot topic worldwide, with the potential for faster transfer of information eagerly awaited by those convinced that it will be a game-changer for the ITS industry. High-definition (HD) maps are essential to allow autonomous vehicles (AVs) to understand their environment, and operate safely within it in relation to other road users and p
