Mercedes-Benz unveils innovative in-wheel brake system for EVs

Mercedes-Benz has unveiled a groundbreaking new braking system designed specifically for electric vehicles.

This innovative system, which places the brakes inside the drive unit, offers several advantages over traditional braking systems.

Key Benefits of the In-Wheel Brake System:

  • Reduced Maintenance: The system is designed to be virtually maintenance-free, eliminating the need for brake pad and rotor replacements.
  • Improved Environmental Impact: By capturing brake dust within the system, the technology reduces harmful emissions and contributes to a cleaner environment.
  • Enhanced Performance: The water-cooled brake disk and unique braking mechanism help to prevent brake fade, even under extreme conditions.
  • Improved Aerodynamics: The elimination of traditional brake calipers allows for more aerodynamic wheel designs, reducing drag and improving vehicle efficiency.

While this innovative technology holds significant promise, it remains to be seen when it will be implemented in production vehicles.
