Lucid Unveils Compact Electric Drive Unit For Formula E Racing via insideevs.com
“With incredible power density of 14.7 hp/kg and immense energy recuperation, this drive unit will once again transform electric motorsports, following in the footsteps of our revolutionary battery pack in prior race seasons,” said Peter Rawlinson, CEO and CTO of Lucid Group. “For Lucid, the transfer of technology between motorsports and road cars is a two-way symbiosis.
The Formula E front drive units are manufactured to exacting specifications at Lucid’s headquarters in California and then shipped to all the teams involved in the electric motorsport series.Lucid, which makes the Air sedan, was previously the battery supplier for the 2022 Formula E championship. For this year’s season, the brief for the front drive unit mentioned that it had to be as compact and as lightweight as possible, with a target maximum regeneration of 250 kW.
The Formula E championship started in 2014 and is currently made up of eleven teams with two drivers each, which race on temporary city circuits around the world in all-electric single-seaters. The third generation of the open-wheel racers has an interesting braking system, where the rear axle doesn’t have any hydraulic brakes and relies only on the regenerative power of the rear-mounted motor, while the front axle still has a conventional setup with discs and pads.
