Amazing stuff! Looks like electric motors are becoming more powerful almost by the month.
"Since 2021, YASA has been a wholly owned subsidiary of Mercedes-Benz Group"
"... YASA announced its latest prototype motor breakthrough this week, and this time around, it's managed to shave off close to half an ounce of weight while boosting power by over 33%.
More precisely, YASA's latest prototype axial flux motor weighs in at 12.7 kg (28 lb) while firing out a peak power of 750 kW (1,006 hp), pinning down a new unofficial world record power density of 59 kW/kg, a full 40% more than the already massive figure it achieved just a few calendar flips ago. ...
As for what the YASA prototype motor can achieve in continuous operation, YASA's team estimates that figure between 350 and 400 kW (469 and 536 hp), which gives it a 27.6 kW/kg continuous power density that lands greater than most motors' peak power densities. In fact, it's double a couple of those aforementioned figures above. ..."
