GKN Driveline Increasing eDrive Output to Meet OEM Demand

摘要

GKN Driveline announced a significant expansion of its eDrive manufacturing operation in Bruneck, Italy, responding to increasing demand from current and new OEM customers for systems to power electric and hybrid vehicles, it noted. The project will add 60% more production space - increasing the plant size from 11,000 to 18,000 sq.m. (118,400 to 193,750 sq.ft.), and will be complete by 2019. The expansion also will allow GKN Driveline increase its output of all-wheel drive technologies, such as electronic torque management units.
