The BMW Startup Garage and the Munich-based company DeepDrive are set to road-test a revolutionary electric motor. The concept features dual rotor technology and is expected to enable super-efficient, powerful drives that offer plenty of range.

After a successful pilot project with promising results on the test rig, the BMW Group and DeepDrive are now planning their first field test. Various versions of the new drive will be installed into BMW Group models and their handling tested out on the road.

Nooooooooooo no more soundtracks i turned that off so fast on my i4 when i got it, it was fun for the first 5 mins then i hated it But i am interested in this tech though could be really good if implemented well. I am hoping nueclasse will be able to deliver around 750-850 km in one charge that would be perfect, and no i do not drive that long distances ever in one go. But would love to see that on the guess-o-meter

I was joking actually

I’d seriously rather hear the eMotors

And I also turn that shit off for all the logical reasons

All humor aside, companies like Akrapovic are undoubtedly evaluating how to license their exhaust sounds to OEM EV manufacturers so the sound can be integrated in an approved manner without coding. It would less than prudent to ignore this new revenue source.

Not exactly sure why anyone will want their EV to sound like a gasser

I think Porsche has the right idea and BMW will use Hans Zimmer probably to have an electric symphonic sound of sorts broadcasting from outside the car

The Porsche Taycan sounds super sick. So lets hope BMW can make their newer EV's sound & look good too!

Yes indeed…

Sick I tell you… Absolutely sick

As well as the new Macan 4, and Macan Turbo Electric

I’ve spent considerable time with both on and off the track, and man they sound absolutely amazing… ‼️
