Before getting its blade-like 1000 portable outboard to the US market, Temo announced its presence with another clever mobile e-drive. The Temo 450 Carbon carries like a canoe paddle but tasks an integrated prop drive with delivering up to 200 watts.

YASA adds to the growing hype around axial flux electric motors, announcing the opening of a "super factory" to boost production. The potent pancake motors will find their way into world-class vehicles from marques like Lamborghini.

Bosch calls the new CX-R ebike motor its highest quality drive unit to date, high self-praise from one of the world's largest e-drive suppliers. The new magnesium-housed motor cranks torque and power to the top of the line and adds a new "race" mode.

There's no replacement for displacement. An adage that's been around as long as the combustion engine, really. But these age-old sayings don't really apply anymore when it comes to electric motors.

You either love or hate Verge's hubless donut-shaped rear wheel. But what if most of the future electric motos were to sport the same tech? Well, that may soon turn out to be true, with Verge commercializing its electric tech for industry-wide use.

The Lamborghini Huracan finally has a successor, and boy, is it a good one! Called the Temerario, which translates to “reckless” in English, it's a plug-in hybrid marking the evolution of the raging bull. Safe to say, the car has big shoes to fill.

Horse Powertrain looks to lend a hand to automakers expanding their hybrid offerings with an axle drive it calls the Future Hybrid Concept. The setup blends battery and fuel power into a single drive unit that transforms a BEV into a flexible hybrid.

Deriving from electric motor technology that set speed records on land, water and air, the Evolito axial flux machine will bring world-beating levels of power density to the Flying Whales airship, designed to be the largest aircraft in the world.

In the grand narrative of automotive history, Koenigsegg's Light Speed Tourbillon Transmission isn't just a new chapter; it's an entirely new volume of mechanical sorcery, making it the only production transmission to enable all-wheel drive with one electric motor.

With sights set firmly on supporting the development of hybrid boats, BlueNav has integrated its unique whale-inspired hubless electric drive into a new smart propulsion system with both ICE and electric power.

James Bruton is a serial crazy-contraption inventor, from a Lego longboard to a self-balancing mecanum-wheeled "Screw bike." Now he's done it again with might be the most bizarre, big-red-balled self-balancing electric bike with five motors to power it.

Donut Lab has premiered its first batch of all-electric motors you can see straight through, ranging from a tiny drone drive to a high-performance hypercar cornerstone the company crowns the world power and torque density king.
