Adapted to the unique needs of EVs, it is fully automatic and maintenance-free, with a tunable bias ratio in the range of 1.5-3.
The EV Truetrac retains its torque bias retention for a lifetime without the need for electronic connections or software, making it a hassle-free solution for EV manufacturers. Tailored to meet the demands of electric SUVs and pickup trucks, it improves traction with additional benefit to stability.
Core features of the EV Truetrac
Optimal performance with Eaton EV differentials
The EV Truetrac differential is engineered to operate seamlessly, adapting between standard and limited-slip functions based on driving conditions. Under typical conditions, it behaves like an open differential, permitting one wheel to spin faster or slower as necessary. When a loss of traction is detected, the EV Truetrac's innovative gear separation forces come into play, redirecting torque to the wheel with better grip. This transition is smooth and efficient, ensuring that the vehicle maintains stability and control. The helical gear design ensures response without driver intervention, seamlessly resuming normal operation once optimal traction is reestablished.
Designed with the unique demands of electric vehicles in mind, the EV Truetrac integrates effortlessly into compact spaces, offering high-power density and superior torque biasing characteristics. This makes it an ideal solution for electric passenger trucks and SUVs.
