This paper will describe the journey of magnetic powersplit powertrain technology from its origins in new technology discovery through to packaged, design intent vehicle applications, describing the obstacles overcome and opportunities realised in the journey that delivered magnetic powersplit technology to Global Automotive OEM's. Aspects of technology development, design for manufacture, capability proving and production feasibility will be described in order to demonstrate a credible, world class next generation hybrid powertrain.
