Q&A with Donut Lab

The automotive industry is undergoing a significant transformation as it shifts toward electrification and sustainability. Among the innovations driving this change are in-wheel electric motors, which offer a unique approach to vehicle design and performance. These systems integrate the motor directly within the wheel hub, potentially simplifying vehicle architecture by minimizing the need for traditional components, such as transmissions and driveshafts. This design not only aims to simplify manufacturing, but also addresses weight management, which is critical for maintaining vehicle handling and performance.
