Platform for electric cars
Electric vehicles have a completely different architecture to cars with combustion engines. The reason for this is the complex e-drive powertrain that must be integrated into the vehicle to achieve maximum functionality and efficiency. The solution to is the Benteler Electric Drive System (BEDS): an open platform that combines electric mobility systems, such as integrated e-chassis modules and modular battery packs.
In the platform, all modules are mechanically and functionally integrated into a functional "skateboard".
Developed by Benteler research team.
