Schaeffler was honoured for its P2 hybrid module used in rear-wheel-drive transmissions at the 2021 Automotive News PACE Awards ceremony. The PACE Awards recognise automotive suppliers for ground-breaking innovations, technological advancement and corporate performance.
Schaeffler’s hybrid module is an achievement in design and optimised packaging. The module consists of an electric motor and an automated disconnect clutch that are mounted between the engine and transmission. Thanks to its compact design, the hybrid module can be used in a variety of vehicle platforms. E-mobility is both a key technology for Schaeffler as well as a field for continuous growth.
Schaeffler, together with Ford Motor Co., also received an Innovation Partnership Award in recognition of their successful collaboration in the development of the system. “We are especially pleased to have been honoured with two prestigious Automotive News PACE Awards this year. These awards once again underscore Schaeffler's core commitment to innovation and effective customer cooperation,” said Matthias Zink, CEO Automotive Technologies of Schaeffler AG.
