COUPLING SHAFT

The Spicer® AdvanTEK® Ultra™ High-Efficiency Axles, a 2019 Automotive News PACE Award winner, are engineered for passenger cars, vans, crossovers, and SUVs. They offer best-in-class fuel efficiency across all torques, speeds, and temperatures without sacrificing durability or NVH. They use ultra-low viscosity lubricants, achieving up to a 45% reduction in energy loss compared to typical axles. Key benefits include 30% better efficiency than current best-in-class solutions, an approximate 2% improvement in fuel economy, weight reduction equivalent to 200 lbs, and a 50% reduction in noise level. The system can be configured with Spicer® SmartConnect™ disconnecting AWD technology for maximum fuel efficiency and is a foundation for future hybrid vehicle applications.
