Smaller, lighter, more powerful motors for electric vehicles

Electric vehicles need motors that deliver more – without weighing more.

YASA’s axial-flux motor design redefines electric performance, offering 4x greater performance and efficiency than traditional EV motors – while being around 50% smaller and lighter. Founded by Oxford Engineering Professor Dr Tim Woolmer, the company was acquired by Mercedes-Benz in 2021 and is now powering the next generation of high-performance electric vehicles.
