Modern Automotives Will Export Differential Pinion Shafts To BMW AG For EV Powertrain
Modern Automotives has got approval for deliveries of Differential Pinion Shaft to BMW AG Munich. The order comprises 2.5 million units to be delivered by 2034.
Pinion shaft provides a permanent gear reduction between the engine and the driving road-wheels. In vehicles, differential is the main part which transmits the movement coming from the engine to the wheels. On a smooth road, the movement comes to both wheels evenly.

For advanced automobiles, this coating process is critical in developing auto parts. With a strategic co-development agreement with HEF, Modern Automotives is well-positioned to provide critical and sensitive parts to global auto majors. Advanced automobile companies from across Europe and Asian nations like Germany and Japan find Modern Automotives as a dependable source for critical parts.
