In this episode of WhichEV’s “It’s Good To Torque”, editor James Morris sits down with Tim Woolmer, the founder and CTO of YASA Motors, to explore the cutting-edge electric motor technology powering some of the world’s most exciting performance cars. From the legendary Jaguar C-X75 to modern hybrid hypercars from Ferrari and Lamborghini, Woolmer explains how YASA’s compact axial-flux motors have transformed the performance and packaging of electrified supercars.

The discussion also dives into the future of electric sports cars, wheel motors, regenerative braking, Formula E innovation, and the rapidly evolving EV market in China. Woolmer shares insights into YASA’s acquisition by Mercedes-AMG, upcoming high-performance electric models, and why he believes the battle between combustion and electric performance cars is only just beginning. Along the way, the pair discuss Ferrari hybrids, Lamborghini’s electrified drivetrains, the appeal of analogue supercars, and how future EVs could radically change the driving experience for a new generation of enthusiasts.
