British motors in AMC EV set to top 1,000bhp
Auto Express
|May 14, 2025 - Special
UNIQUE British motors that slash size and weight and are more powerful than rivals are the heart of AMG's new EV super-saloon - and Auto Express has the lowdown from their inventor.
Oxford graduate Tim Woolmer founded Yasa in 2009 to commercialise the axial flux electric motor he designed for his PhD. Almost a decade later, he clinched a deal for Yasa to supply Ferrari's SF90 hybrid, and last week Auto Express toured the all-new £12million Oxfordshire factory also producing e-motors for Lamborghini and McLaren.
The plant is scaling up to produce 25,000 motors a year, and another major breakthrough comes this summer when Yasa starts powering its first pure-electric production car, the AMG GT 4-Door - although its motors will be made in Berlin after Mercedes' acquisition of Yasa in 2021.
