Advanced Electric Machines Titan Set for IAA Transportation 2026

Advanced Electric Machines to Present Titan at IAA Transportation 2026

Advanced Electric Machines Titan will be presented at IAA Transportation 2026, where Advanced Electric Machines plans to showcase its heavy-duty electric motor technology through a detailed 3D concept of the new motor. Designed specifically for heavy-duty and commercial applications, Titan is part of AEM’s ongoing effort to broaden its rare earth-free product portfolio. The company expects the first Titan samples to arrive in the third quarter of 2027, giving commercial vehicle developers an early view of a motor technology aimed at demanding operating requirements.

Integrated Air-Cooled Electric Drive System

AEM will also use IAA Transportation 2026 to demonstrate its new integrated air-cooled electric drive system. The package combines the HDRM150 motor with a matched air-cooled inverter in a drop-in configuration operating at up to 700V and delivering more than 30kW of peak motor output. By using an air-cooled architecture, the rare earth-free system eliminates the need for liquid-cooling infrastructure. This approach is intended to simplify integration while providing a complete electric drive package for applications where packaging, cooling requirements and system installation are important considerations.

TRAKr E-Axle Supports Regenerative Energy Recovery

The company will further showcase its TRAKr e-axle at the SAF-HOLLAND stand. The system incorporates an HDRM150 rare-earth-free motor as a generator, enabling regenerative energy recovery within the e-axle architecture. Together, the Titan motor concept, integrated air-cooled drive system and TRAKr e-axle demonstrate Advanced Electric Machines’ broader focus on rare earth-free electric propulsion technologies for commercial vehicles. The technologies highlight different approaches to motor and drivetrain integration, from a future heavy-duty motor platform to an integrated drive unit and an e-axle designed to support energy recovery.

Focus on Rare Earth-Free Commercial Vehicle Technology

The technologies being presented by Advanced Electric Machines reflect a continued emphasis on electric propulsion solutions that reduce reliance on rare earth materials while addressing commercial vehicle requirements. Titan represents the company’s next development for heavy-duty applications, while the HDRM150-based air-cooled drive system offers an integrated solution with a peak output exceeding 30kW at up to 700V. The TRAKr e-axle extends the same motor technology into regenerative energy recovery. Together, these developments demonstrate AEM’s expanding portfolio across electric motor, drive and e-axle applications.
