X-Range spotlight

A complete family of compact, high-integration powertrains designed to add hybrid and range-extender capability to BEV-native platforms.

The X-Range portfolio – including C15 Direct Drive, F15 Direct Drive and C15 – enables a single shared platform across BEV, HEV, PHEV and REEV line-ups, without significant changes to vehicle design or production environments.

From full hybrid drive units to ultra-compact range extenders, each solution is engineered for seamless integration, scalability and cost efficiency.

Transformative and compact

A HORSE X-RANGE POWERTRAIN SYSTEM

An ultra-compact all-in-one powertrain designed to seamlessly replace the rear electric drive unit of BEVs, transforming them into hybridized vehicles. The flexible system can support rear- and all-wheel-drive applications, allowing a single platform to serve as a foundation for BEV, xHEV or REEVs, with minimal modifications or retooling.

The HORSE C15 Direct Drive is the newest member of Horse Powertrain’s X-Range family – a complete toolkit for adding hybrid capability to BEV-native platforms.

Key features

Integrated engine, hybrid transmission, electric motor and full suite of power electronics
Supports rear-wheel and all-wheel drive
Available with either a naturally aspirated or turbocharged engine

Enables BEV platforms to be the foundations of HEV, PHEV and REEV models by replacing rear electric drive unit
Designed to mount to rear subframe enabling a double isolated installation for best NVH
Compact integration of the exhaust and after treatment systems maximizes floor space for batteries or the passenger compartment
