BorgWarner boasted that its Integrated Drive Module (iDM) will be used in the upcoming Ford Mustang Mach-E (both rear- and all-wheel-drive versions).

The iDM consists within one compact assembly a BorgWarner thermal-management system (liquid cooling), lubrication solution and single-speed gearbox (with a park module), integrated with a motor and power electronics from other (undisclosed) suppliers.

Unlike BorgWarner eGearDrive units, the iDM for Ford Mustang Mach-E is a co-axial to make it more compact.

"BorgWarner was able to capitalize on its experience with scalable and modular approaches to iDMs to deliver this customized drive module that met Ford’s stringent requirements. Different than other BorgWarner eGearDrive units, the gearing incorporated within the iDM does not utilize parallel axis gearing, instead featuring a concentric design with outputs on the same axis as the electric motor, resulting in a more compact package. The company’s high-performing gearbox enables an efficient, smooth ride capable of handling 4,278 Nm of axle torque and input speeds up to 13,800 rpm."

BorgWarner says that the iDM offers "a high level of integration, impressive system efficiency and optimal noise, vibration and harshness characteristics", although only time will tell how good the efficiency really is.

Series production of BorgWarner iDM for Ford Mustang Mach-E will begin later this year.
