Autoliv, Polestar collaborate on climate-neutral car

Automotive safety systems provider Autoliv has announced its intent to collaborate with Polestar in its initiative, “Polestar 0.” The goal, the company says, is to develop a truly climate-neutral car by 2030.

Autoliv says it is committed to being the first automotive safety supplier to become carbon neutral in its own operations by 2030 and aims for net-zero emissions across its supply chain by 2040.

Autoliv and Polestar intend to research and develop technology aiming at finding climate-neutral solutions and innovations related to automotive safety such as pyrotechnics, textiles and new generations of materials for airbags and seatbelts, the companies say.

ZF announced it developed an electric motor that does not require magnets. In contrast to the magnet-free concepts of separately excited synchronous motors (SESM) already available today, ZF said its I2SM (In-Rotor Inductive-Excited Synchronous Motor) transmits the energy for the magnetic field via an inductive exciter inside the rotor shaft. This makes the motor uniquely compact with maximum power and torque density.
