Dana, Motiv Power Systems collaborate on all-electric e-axle on Ford Super Duty F-550 Chassis
Dana Inc. and Motiv Power Systems have announced a collaboration to integrate Dana’s Spicer Electrified eS9000r e-Axle on the Ford F-550 chassis for use in commercial fleet applications.
By replacing the traditional mechanical driveline with an electric motor integrated directly into the vehicle’s differential housing, the e-Axle provides greater design flexibility for battery placement and truck body attachment, Dana says. In addition to Dana’s e-Axle technology, the chassis features Motiv’s electric powertrain controls.
