AURORA, Ontario, Nov. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
As OEMs increasingly prioritize hybrid solutions globally within

leading Chinese OEM. This recognition underscores Magna's

company’s flexible approach to supplying power to wheels.

Magna's DHD Duo system delivers a longitudinal front drive
solution featuring an advanced dual e-motor and multi-speed design.
The high-powered 800V system ensures an exceptionally smooth and
comfortable experience across all driving conditions, positioning
Magna at the forefront of hybrid technology innovation.
“Our DHD Duo system embodies our commitment to
creating exceptional driving experiences that are kinder to the
planet,” said Diba Ilunga, President Magna Powertrain. “This hybrid
solution offers our customers efficiency and versatility to meet
both market demands and environmental goals, without sacrificing
performance or comfort.”
Addressing the challenge of integrating
longitudinal hybrid systems in both passenger and commercial
vehicles, the DHD Duo leverages compact and highly integrated dog
clutch technology. This allows for application of the DHD Duo
system across multiple vehicle models without the need for
structural modifications, offering unmatched flexibility to
OEMs.
The longitudinal DHD Duo front drive is part of
Magna's DHD Duo family. Its scalable design supports B to E vehicle
segments, including SUVs, pickups, and light buses. It provides a
flexible architecture switch between P1+P3, P2+P3, and range
extender configurations, accommodating electric, serial, and
parallel driving modes.
By addressing a product gap in the longitudinal
front-drive, multi-speed 800V hybrid transmission market, Magna’s
DHD Duo offers a versatile solution for global markets.
Production is scheduled to start in Q3 2025, at
Magna’s Nanchang facility.
