Advantages of eCorner

The change-over from internal combustion engines to the eCorner concept will be enhanced by various aspects, for drivers as well as for automobile manufacturers, such as energy efficiency and the associated emissions.

Utilization under optimum conditions of the theoretically available energy
Future full hybrid system	Ca. 85%
Today's gasoline and diesel engines	< 50%
Wheel hub motors (projected)	Up to 96%

This will make it much easier for automobile manufacturers to satisfy emission regulations and simultaneously offer extremely dynamic vehicles with excellent fuel economy.

Further modularization of future cars:

Vehicle manufacturers only will require different drive wheel layouts for equipping highly differing vehicle concepts (e.g. 2-WD / 4-WD)
potential to allow a completely new vehicle design (replacing the large engine with all its accessory parts and transmissions)
Driver assistance systems using eCorner for support will offer drivers entirely new possibilities, e.g.pivoting wheels to enable sideways parking.
Controlled acceleration of individual wheels for better vehicle stabilization in hazardous situations
The service and maintenance costs for car owners will also be reduced: fewer components and the elimination of all hydraulic fluids will reduce wear and service complexity
