Summary: InfiMotion Technology’s new off-road dual-motor e-drive debuts on the Geely K011, while the company’s electric drive systems appear across nearly every vehicle on the Geely Auto stand at the 2026 Paris Motor Show, plus Lynk & Co, Zeekr and Smart models. InfiMotion describes the off-road dual-motor e-drive, which is already in series production, as the only locking dual-motor system in its class.
Key engineering takeaway: Each motor delivers 220 kW, with combined peak torque of 2 x 4,500 Nm. A differential-lock controller stacks output onto one side to free a stuck vehicle, with per-wheel distribution reaching 9,000 Nm at one wheel, and the unit is IPX8-rated after iceberg impact and submersion tests. Elsewhere in the 400V to 900V portfolio, the TP501 900V co-axial dual motor drive uses a semi-solid die-cast magnesium alloy housing that cuts weight by 30%, and the P600 Compact EDU reaches 92.4% CLTC efficiency through Mini-Pin winding and 0.2 mm silicon steel.
Why it matters: The release frames the off-road dual-motor e-drive around traction when a vehicle is stuck: the differential-lock controller stacks output onto one side, which InfiMotion describes as a 200% amplification at a single wheel. On durability, InfiMotion cites deep oil-cooling that sustains more than 100 consecutive full-throttle accelerations without degradation, and validation at its CNAS-certified testing centre spanning -60°C to 140°C thermal cycling, 1,500-hour salt spray and 2,500-hour endurance runs.
The 2026 Paris Motor Show runs October 12 to 18 at the Paris Porte de Versailles Exhibition Center. InfiMotion Technology, a core force in China’s powertrain sector, does not exhibit independently — yet its electric drive systems appear across multiple automaker lineups, including nearly every vehicle on the Geely Auto stand, plus Lynk & Co, Zeekr, and Smart models. The Geely stand also hosts the European debut of the Monjaro EM-i alongside the EX2, EX5, and STARRAY EM-i. InfiMotion’s newest products also appear at Geely’s UTAC roadshow in France, giving European media direct access to its next-generation e-drive portfolio.
InfiMotion’s new off-road dual-motor e-drive — the only locking dual-motor system in its class — debuts on the Geely K011, delivering 220 kW per motor and combined peak torque of 2 x 4,500 N•m. Its differential-lock controller stacks output onto one side to free a stuck vehicle; per-wheel distribution reaches 9,000 N•m at one wheel, a 200% amplification. It is IPX8-rated, having passed iceberg impact and submersion tests.
TP501 And P600 Compact EDU Across The 400V To 900V Range
The portfolio spans 400V to 900V. The TP501 900V co-axial dual motor drive uses a semi-solid die-cast magnesium alloy housing, cutting weight by 30%. The P600 Compact EDU, above 750V, achieves 92.4% CLTC efficiency through Mini-Pin winding and 0.2 mm ultra-thin silicon steel. Proprietary deep oil-cooling enables over 100 consecutive full-throttle accelerations without degradation. The off-road system is already in series production, and the 11-in-1 domain-controlled EDU launched in 2024 powers the Geely Galaxy E5, China’s top-exporting A-segment electric SUV.
Production Scale, R&D Network And Motor Testing
In H1 2026, InfiMotion ranked among China’s top three suppliers by shipment for electric motors and inverters. Its R&D network spans Wuxi, Shanghai, Ningbo, Hangzhou, and Gothenburg, with 1,000+ engineers including 100+ Swedish software specialists. Five smart manufacturing bases in China support a global supply footprint reaching Europe and Malaysia. Its CNAS-certified testing center houses the world’s first 30,000 rpm motor test bench, with validation spanning -60°C to 140°C thermal cycling, 1,500-hour salt spray, and 2,500-hour endurance runs.
Off-Road Dual-Motor E-Drive: Frequently Asked Questions
What is the InfiMotion off-road dual-motor e-drive?
The InfiMotion off-road dual-motor e-drive is an electric drive system with two 220 kW motors and a differential-lock controller, which debuts on the Geely K011 and is already in series production. InfiMotion describes it as the only locking dual-motor system in its class.
How does the differential lock on the off-road dual-motor e-drive work?
According to InfiMotion, the differential-lock controller stacks output onto one side to free a stuck vehicle, with per-wheel distribution reaching 9,000 Nm at one wheel, which the company describes as a 200% amplification. In general terms, an open differential sends drive towards the wheel with the least resistance, so a wheel spinning without grip can leave a vehicle stuck; a differential lock prevents this by making the wheels share the drive rather than losing it to the wheel with no traction.
What are the specifications of the InfiMotion off-road dual-motor e-drive?
InfiMotion quotes 220 kW per motor, combined peak torque of 2 x 4,500 Nm and per-wheel distribution of up to 9,000 Nm at one wheel. The unit is IPX8-rated, having passed iceberg impact and submersion tests.
What does an IPX8 rating mean?
IP ratings are defined in IEC 60529. The first digit covers protection against solid particles and the second against water; an “X” in the first position means that digit was not rated. A second digit of 8 indicates protection against continuous immersion in water, under conditions agreed between manufacturer and user that are more severe than the 1 m immersion test used for IPX7.
What is CLTC efficiency?
CLTC is the China Light-duty vehicle Test Cycle, the drive cycle used for vehicle certification in China. A CLTC efficiency figure for an electric drive unit expresses its average efficiency across the speed and load points that cycle demands, rather than its peak efficiency at a single operating point. InfiMotion quotes 92.4% CLTC efficiency for its P600 Compact EDU.
