Unmatched thrust at the lightest weight

The Wright Motor's 2.5 megawatts (MW) of shaft power paves the way toward enough thrust for optimal lift during the most critical moments of a flight — a new standard in electric aviation.

Unmatched Power: With up to 2.5 MW of power (3x higher than commercial-off-the-shelf), our propulsion unit delivers unrivaled performance, providing the energy needed to drive next-generation vehicles and vessels.

‍Exceptional Power Density: Boasting specific power up to 16 kw/kg (3x higher than commercial-off-the-shelf), our propulsion unit maximizes energy output while minimizing size and weight, offering a compact solution for a wide range of applications.
‍High Efficiency: With an efficiency rating of 96%, our propulsion unit ensures efficient energy utilization, reducing stored energy requirements, environmental impact, and operating costs.

‍Proven Track Record: Developed in collaboration with leading research institutions such as NASA and ARPA-E, our propulsion unit will undergo rigorous testing to demonstrate its exceptional reliability and performance.

Megawatt advantage for full passenger loads

Lift is a function of thrust minus drag, and by keeping our motor lightweight and drag-efficient, we minimize the lift required and maximize performance.

Flexible Power Options: Our propulsion unit offers peak power of 2 MW at 800 VDC and 2.5 MW at 1200 VDC, providing versatility to meet diverse application requirements.

‍High-Speed Performance: With a rated speed of 7,500 rpm and 2,550 Nm of rated torque, our propulsion unit delivers high-speed performance.

‍Integrated Inverter Technology: WM2500 is equipped with eight integrated inverters, each rated to 250 kW of power.

‍Multiple Outputs: The EPU is designed to direct-drive a ducted fan, power a propellor through a single-stage gearbox, or perform as the genset of a 4 MW class turbogenerator.
