have at least made mention of in-wheel motors or put them into a concept or two . But in-wheel motors have never made a big splash in a production automobile because of numerous technical challenges.thinks now is the time for a new look at in-wheel motors, and has just come out of a decade-long stealth mode to prove it.
"I believe, for the first time in the automotive industry, we have an integrated in-wheel active suspension system which is not a separate actuator," he said."This is the function of the design of the motor itself rather than a separate component that adds mass, complexity and cost to the system." "Our integrated active suspension counteracts a lot of the negative impact on vehicle dynamics from motion sickness," she said.Indigo says that its next public move will be to partner with a Tier-1 supplier or automaker partner for a fleet of 50-100 vehicles, a move that could be announced in the next three to six months, Rosen said. The company thinks that it can have the T1 on a production vehicle by 2022, but it won't be a typical vehicle. First off, it will be electric.
