A conversation with Taiwan's XING Mobility on the future of electric vehicles
- Start-up sees huge demand from commercial, industrial and recreational vehicle makers to go electric
The future of electric transport is well underway as carmakers around the world prepare to phase out vehicles powered solely by internal combustion engines, encouraged by various government efforts to tackle fuel emissions and rising international demand for electric-powered alternatives.
This massive transition to electric vehicles (EVs) has opened opportunities for advanced hi-tech suppliers to emerge and help these manufacturers, both large and small, build a new generation of products for the market.
Taiwanese start-up XING Mobility has made its mark in the industry as a supplier of advanced electric batteries and powertrains to the world’s commercial, industrial and recreational vehicle makers. Its powertrain, which comprise the main components that generate power for a vehicle, include fully integrated electric motors, gearboxes and controllers. These can be deployed alongside both dedicated EV transmissions and existing internal combustion engines, allowing for quick and cost-effective retrofits.
Royce Hong, co-founder and chief executive of XING Mobility, told the South China Morning Post how the company was established and why its battery cooling technology is a breakthrough in the industry.
