Israeli REE company may bring revolutionary changes to electric vehicle design

REE is seeking to reshape the design of electric vehicles (EVs). Israel-based electric vehicle startup REE believes that it may have found a way to completely subvert the design of electric vehicles and provide a completely flat platform for electric vehicles and autonomous vehicles, which will reshape the current electric vehicle. structure.

Electric vehicles based on REEs platform and modular platform will have stronger and wider electrification. At present, the design of electric vehicles is that one or two motors drive wheels through a traditional shaft, a single-speed transmission and a large battery pack as low as possible.

However, REE's electric vehicle design fully includes the drive components in the wheels. This will eliminate the bulky drive unit installed between the front or rear wheels and provide a completely flat floor for more passenger and cargo space in a given application.

In addition, CNET's roadshow pointed out that by installing a separate motor on each wheel, this also provides an opportunity for very advanced torque vector control. In theory, this will improve handling and safety.

The company said that although the installation of drive elements into the wheels is not completely revolutionary, its unique feature is that the company's methods include not only motors, but also steering systems, transmission systems, sensing systems, suspension systems, and braking systems. , Electronic components and thermal systems.

REE hopes to change the design of electric vehicles to catch up with the changing automotive industry. In addition to the electric vehicle design project that REE started six years ago, this company, co-founded by Daniel Barel and Ahishay Sardes, is also a co-founder of SoftWheel. SoftWheel is a technology company that improves personal mobility for wheelchair users.

However, when talking about their electric vehicle design concepts, Barrell said in an interview with Interesting Engineering that the reason why REE changed the current design model is because "the entire automotive industry is changing. But the vehicle is still built on a concept that is 100 years old. "

Barrell said: "At REE, we are undergoing a fundamental transformation to ensure that vehicles meet current and future needs."

The new electric vehicle design is said to be a universal platform. Therefore, it does not matter whether the vehicle using it is a self-driving taxi or a 10-ton off-road truck. It can be customized specifically for all models.
