Two great minds in permanent-magnet-free motor design are fusing their know-how to create an even more capable inductive electric motor. Mahle and Valeo have teamed up to introduce what they call the Inner Brushless Electrical Excitation (iBEE) system, a form of e-machine that eliminates the need…

    Yes. Emphasis on the word “particular” product.

    So they’ve made a motor that has half the associated carbon cost of the current tech? If so, then are they claiming to cut carbon emissions in half when all motors have been replaced with theirs? Or… making them has half the cost of making current motors?

    I’m asking what the specific claim of “halving carbon emissions”. Just all of them? Some associated costs? All costs associated with electric motors once they’re all this type? That’s a very vague claim, is my point.

        I’m not being pedantic.

        I knew it would be of a particular motor.

        Thus the title is clickbait, which is why I’ve not clicked it.
