BorgWarner Wins Electric Differential Project for EVs in China

21 Aug 2025 CW Team

BorgWarner has been awarded a new program to supply its electric cross differential (eXD) technology to a leading Chinese original equipment manufacturer for use in electric vehicles. The solution supports the transition from conventional powertrains to advanced electrification systems, addressing growing demand for improved performance and safety.

The eXD system dynamically manages power distribution between wheels, enhancing handling and traction under diverse driving conditions. It adapts in real time to factors such as speed, acceleration, and road surface, ensuring stability during high-speed driving, sharp turns, and low-friction environments.

By detecting changes in grip, the technology optimises power transfer for superior vehicle control. On dry roads, more torque can be channelled to outer wheels for sharper cornering, while in slippery conditions such as ice or mud, power is redirected to wheels with better traction to maintain stability.

According to BorgWarner, the technology—already proven in high-performance combustion vehicles—is now being extended to electric vehicles to further enhance the driving experience.
