AISIN, Others Develop Two-Motor Hybrid Drive Module for New Jeep Cherokee
BluE Nexus, AISIN and DENSO announced on August 27, 2026, that their newly developed two-motor hybrid drive module has been adopted for STELLANTIS’ new Jeep Cherokee. The transaxle and motor will be produced at AISIN North Carolina, and the inverter at DENSO Manufacturing Tennessee, supporting the rollout of HEVs in the North American market.
What happened
BluE Nexus, AISIN and DENSO announced on August 27, 2026, that their newly developed two-motor hybrid drive module has been adopted for STELLANTIS’ new Jeep Cherokee.
Why it matters
The new Jeep Cherokee shows the drive configuration chosen for a vehicle expected to deliver high off-road capability even as a hybrid. The three companies say the two-motor system combines a high-efficiency, high-output transaxle with optimized control of the motor and boost converter, helping balance off-road performance and fuel efficiency.
