Q. What was the strategy behind adapting the 48V motor to e-bikes? Is it a first for the segment?
A. One of our key strategic focuses is accelerating our expansion in the emerging markets for new “zero-emissions” mobility. This includes electric small city vehicles, electric motorcycles and scooters, last-mile autonomous delivery droids and e-bikes. To execute this, we are leveraging and adapting the technological platforms that we developed for the automotive industry – both, those dedicated to Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and to lowvoltage electrification (48V). Thanks to our 48V technological platform, which enables us to electrify vehicles at an optimal cost, we can meet a broad range of needs and uses from a single technology base and therefore benefit from substantial volume effects and economies of scale. Our 48V technologies equip cars of course, but can also be used in autonomous shuttles, delivery droids, scooters, three-wheelers and now e-bikes.
