AAM 为新型 2021 克莱斯勒 Pacifica 提供 EcoTrac 可断开式全轮驱动

底特律，2020 年 11 月 19 日 – American Axle & Manufacturing (AAM) 正在为克莱斯勒的带全轮驱动的新型 2021 克莱斯勒 Pacifica 面包车提供其屡获殊荣的 EcoTrac® 可断开式全轮驱动。AAM 的系统仅在车辆感应到需要时时，才能无缝提供全轮驱动的安全性和性能（包括低温、挡风玻璃雨刷器使用、前轮滑动、重加速、电子稳定控制激活、突然转向和崎岖路况）。

“AAM 首次在市场上推出了在 Jeep® Cherokee 上的可断开式全轮驱动系统”，AAM 董事长兼首席执行官 David C. Dauch 说。“我们正在扩大与菲亚特克莱斯勒汽车公司的关系，为该公司的关键车辆之一提供这一创新技术。

AAM 太平洋动力传输单元 (PTU)、后驱模块 (RDM) 和传动系控制模块 (DTCM) 是太平洋全轮驱动系统的核心，使用车辆传感器数据不断评估牵引力，并协助驾驶员战胜恶劣天气和具有挑战性的路况。

PTU 将扭矩从九速自动变速器中分离，并路由到后置驱动模块。DTCM 包含全轮驱动系统软件，通过 RDM 提供增强的处理和改进后轮牵引力。

当只需要前轮驱动时，AAM 的取力器断开连接并使传动轴停止旋转，不再向后驱动模组传递动力。减少旋转有助于提高效率和减少排放，同时在需要时仍可提供增强的安全性。

AAM 在 2013 年底推出了业界首个可断开式全轮驱动系统。自此，AAM 已提供超过 60 万件可断开式全轮驱动装置，帮助车辆变得更安全、更高效。
