  • GKN Supplies All-Wheel Drive System for 2014 Range Rover Evoque 04-Sep-2013 07:36 GMT News New Products
    GKN supplies all-wheel drive system for 2014 Range Rover Evoque 04-Sep-2013 07:36 GMT News New Products Helps in reducing overall fuel consumption up to 11.4% GKN Driveline has equipped 2014 Range Rover Evoque with its ‘Active Driveline’, according to company’s press release. The 2014 Range Rover Evoque includes a unique disconnect all-wheel drive system, designed to improve fuel efficiency while retaining outstanding off-road performance with dynamic agility and enhanced traction, states the release. Besides Active Driveline, GKN Driveline also supplies the all-wheel drive system for the 2014 Range Rover Evoque Standard Driveline. Power transfer units and Rear Drive Modules for both variants are produced at supplier’s facility in Sweden and front sideshafts and propshafts are supplied out of Birmingham, UK manufacturing unit. The GKN All-Wheel Drive System includes a GKN power transfer unit (PTU), linked to the transmission’s final drive differential, containing a synchronizer and brake which help in disconnecting the all-wheel drive system upstream of the PTU hypoid gears. Significance: The GKN All-Wheel Drive System automatically disconnects the main rotating driveline components to reduce losses. Traction and driving stability are optimised by the Active Torque Biasing feature offering advanced control on the distribution of the torque between the front and rear wheels. The co-development of the Active Driveline has achieved a significant reduction in driveline spin loss, which in turn contributes to the 2014 Range Rover Evoque’s overall fuel consumption reduction of up to 11.4% (depending on model). At the rear of the system the GKN Twinster® rear drive module (RDM) drives each rear wheel via an independent wet multi-plate clutch.

  • GKN Develops World's Smallest All-Wheel Drive Disconnect System
    GKN develops world’s smallest all-wheel drive disconnect system Submitted by: GKN plc Tuesday, 7 October 2014 GKN has developed the world’s first Disconnect All-Wheel Drive System for A-, B- and C-segment vehicle platforms, which improves fuel economy during steady state cruising by up to 4%. The innovative Disconnect function enables vehicles to combine the enhanced traction, dynamics and stability of all-wheel drive with improved on-highway fuel efficiency. Senior Programme Director Hannes Prenn said: “As global demand for smaller, more efficient SUVs continues to grow, GKN’s Disconnect All-Wheel Drive System will help open new markets. This compact new system enables manufacturers to offer customers more capable and dynamic vehicles with improved fuel-efficiency and CO2 emissions.” The system responds to driver inputs and road conditions, connecting and disengaging drive to the rear axle on demand. By eliminating rotating losses from the driveline, during steady state cruising fuel efficiency can be improved by up to 4% compared to permanent all-wheel drive systems. The result is a tightly packaged all-wheel drive system, which replaces features such as the standard power transfer unit (PTU) with a monoblock housing that fully integrates the propshaft’s constant velocity joint. The arrangement also yields superior NVH characteristics, benefiting the overall refinement of the vehicle. The clutch system at the heart of the disconnect system is a development of the system used in the Range Rover Evoque. Senior Vice President of Engineering, Rob Rickell, said: “With all production, engineering and software development in-house, GKN Driveline is the only supplier able to develop and supply such a tightly integrated all-wheel drive system.

Cuenta con una gran tradición automovilística desde principios del siglo 20, y a lo largo de este tiempo han surgido importantes marcas. En cuanto al panorama actual de su industria automovilística, está experimentando un crecimiento considerable después de las inversiones de años anteriores, y la recuperación de la economía global. Reino Unido está siendo uno de los países con mayor número de contrataciones actualmente. Mucha gente piensa que su industria automotriz ha estado en un estado de decadencia desde la década de 1960. Pero aunque no hay grandes fabricantes de automóviles de propiedad británica, la industria está en muy buena forma. Empresas como Nissan y Honda se instalaron en Reino Unido; marcas icónicas como Rolls-Royce y Bentley, ahora en manos de los gigantes alemanes BMW y Volkswagen, respectivamente (BMW también es propietaria de Mini, que se hace en Oxford), todavía están diseñando y fabricando en Reino Unido; y Tata de la India ha revitalizado Jaguar y Land Rover, con nuevos modelos.
