Through proprietary motor configurations, cutting-edge control strategies, and comprehensive design optimization, we have overcome the traditional limitations of SRMs. Our high-performance motors are quiet, efficient, powerful, and scalable.” Dr. Emadi added, “We are very pleased that Honda sees the potential of our motor technology.
