Levelling-up dedicated hybrid transmission
EV Fluid
Today's environmental challenges have clearly put energy transition under way, and the resulting regulations are forcing the automotive industry to innovate constantly while responding to user expectations for quality and performance.
With the rising concern over tailpipe emissions prompting stricter standards for carbon dioxide and pollutants, demand of hybrid and electric vehicles are rapidly growing. In 2020, there were more than three million electric vehicles (EVs) sold which grew by 43% year on year. According to various scenarios, EV sales are expected to account for 90% of the light duty vehicles market by 2040 with some car manufacturers announcing that they would stop manufacturing internal combustion engine (ICE) models in the coming decades.
As a trusted partner to car manufacturers, TotalEnergies Lubrifiants aims to become the responsible energy major to deliver technical, people-oriented solutions and sustainable performance. Our goal is to promote cleaner mobility that is better for both people and the environment.
New technical requirements of EV Fluids
Fluids with Specific Technical Properties for Unparalleled Lifespan
New technical constraints for the electrification of vehicles require the development of new fluids that must meet the following properties:
Insulation augmented
Dielectric properties to prevent short-circuits and static charge build-up
Thermo.control augmented
Thermal properties to enhance heat transfer & cooling capability
Compatibility augmented
Compatibility properties with copper & insulating materials
Quartz EV-Drive R
Quartz EV-Drive R is specifically designed with Compatibility Augmented technology for electricdrivetrain reducers. This product is a synthetic fluid formulated for new generation of electric drivetrain reducers operating under extreme conditions.
