BorgWarner has secured a contract with a major European OEM to supply its high performing eTurbo on a passenger vehicle. This business award marks the company's first serial production contract for the eTurbo, with production slated to begin in 2022. With the eTurbo's key performance and energy-usage benefits, BorgWarner is boosting vehicle performance while aiding vehicle manufacturers in meeting more stringent future global emissions regulations, and improving fuel efficiency. The eTurbo is comprised of a mechanical turbocharger with an electric motor directly coupled to the shaft which can serve as either a motor or a generator. The integrated solution delivers the traditional benefits of a standard turbocharger with the added advantage of electrified boost assistance for superior response. Additional benefits include the ability to capture excess turbine energy to generate electrical power and reduced emissions through aftertreatment management and precise air/fuel ratio control.
