La unidad de accionamiento eléctrico de AAM impulsa el Mercedes-AMG GT 63 SE PERFORMANCE

DETROIT,14 de junio de 2022. La tecnología de línea de transmisión eléctrica de American Axle & Manufacturing (AAM) (Bolsa de valores de Nueva York [NYSE]): AXL) impulsa el primer modelo de vehículo eléctrico híbrido y enchufable (PHEV) de AMG, el Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E PERFORMANCE. AAM suministra la unidad de accionamiento posterior del automóvil, que, hace poco, recibió el puesto de finalista del premio PACETM de 2022 de Automotive News.

“La unidad de accionamiento eléctrico de AAM, de diseño compacto y alta capacidad energética, facilita un rendimiento superior del vehículo”, dijo David C. Dauch, presidente y director ejecutivo de AAM. “Este contrato para suministrar productos al nuevo automóvil híbrido de Mercedes-AMG muestra la galardonada tecnología de accionamiento eléctrico líder de la industria de AAM. Además, continúa nuestro trabajo para ser el proveedor que los fabricantes de equipos originales (OEM) eligen a medida que amplían sus ofertas de propulsión y movilidad eléctrica”.

La unidad de accionamiento eléctrico, ubicada en el eje posterior, es la primera aplicación de producción en volumen que combina un sistema mecánico de tracción en las 4 ruedas con un módulo de accionamiento eléctrico de 2 velocidades. Este diseño de sistema P3, con el motor eléctrico en el eje posterior, optimiza la distribución del peso y aumenta el torque de salida total, en comparación con un motor eléctrico montado en la transmisión (híbrido P2). 

Las características de diseño innovadoras incluyen una caja de cambios de dos velocidades accionada de manera electromecánica y un diferencial de deslizamiento limitado controlado de manera electromecánica (eLSD), lo que proporciona tiempos de cambio y tracción de última generación.  

Este automóvil puede generar un máximo de 620 kW/843 hp, llegar a las 62 mph en 2.9 segundos y alcanzar una velocidad máxima de 316 kph (196 mph). La unidad de accionamiento eléctrico de AAM proporciona una potencia o torque de salida de 150 kW/204 hp, aumenta rendimiento a la transmisión híbrida y ayuda a lograr cero emisiones.  

Con el lanzamiento del Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E PERFORMANCE, AAM continúa su transformación para convertirse en un proveedor líder de tecnología de accionamiento eléctrico.

El premio PACE otorga un reconocimiento a los proveedores automotrices por innovaciones destacadas, avances tecnológicos y el desempeño comercial. En el mundo entero, son una referencia de la industria para la innovación. Los premios se anunciarán en septiembre de 2022.
