For 15 years, Automotive IQ has hosted the Advanced E-Motor Technologies and Thermal Management conferences alongside one another. As traditional silos are now being broken down, interdisciplinary teams are forming, and people are collaborating with one another.

Presenting, EV/HEV Powertrain 2027, with three razor-focused conferences taking place simultaneously; 1. Advanced E-Motor Technologies Track 2. Thermal Management Track 3. Advanced Power Electronics Track

Topics explored at the 2026 conference included:

  • Next-generation refrigerants that are in line with PFAS regulation
  • Comparing benefits of using magnet-free motors vs. traditional motors – what’s the trade off?
  • Use cases: learn how to use AI to design an efficient thermal management system
  • Cost is king: Explore cost-effective approaches to optimise e-motor design & manufacturing
  • OEM best practices to optimise power electronics efficiency
In 2026, conference presentations, panels, roundtable discussions and more were led by experts from The Volvo Group, General Motors, Toyota Motor Europe, Volkswagen AG, JLR, Skoda Auto, Tata Motors European Technical Centre and more,  and the 2027 conference is set to be just as unmissable for the powertrain community, and has been specifically designed for vehicle manufacturers, suppliers, technology providers and other powertrain stakeholders.
