TM4 A VISION REALIZED
OUR MISSIONOur mission is to become a world
leader in electric drivetrains for the automotive, commercial and
advanced transportation industries.We are committed to developing close
partnerships with clients, enabling them to minimize their time-to-market,
and maximize ROI. We have made it our mission to ensure the seamless
integration, cost-eff ective series production, and rapid deployment of
our highly fl exible products.
30 years ago, a visionary group of researchers at Hydro-Quebec
set out to transform the world’s mobility landscape by literally
reinventing the wheel. Their vision for a greener tomorrow would
serve as the inspiration behind TM4. That same vision
and determination has allowed TM4 to expand and � ourish –
and today we are proud to be a driving force for sustainable
electric mobility and renewable power generation solutions.
UP TO ANY CHALLENGE. TM4 employs over 300
specialists worldwide and in each of them thrives a restless
perfectionism and the passion to push technology to its limits, and
beyond. Our unique combination of expertise and experience has
merged to form a cross-functional team. So product development
requirements with ever increasing market demands, strict
deadlines, and costs constraints are welcomed as yet another
opportunity to excel. All of this has empowered TM4 with the skills,
creativity, ingenuity, and enthusiasm needed to conceive and
deploy a growing family of scalable electric powertrain systems for
the global transport industry in a variety of applications.
TM4’s considerable pro� ciency, � exibility, and customer-oriented
approach are unmatched in the industry. Our clients bene� t from
the constant communication, cooperation and exchange directly
with our various experts. That makes us an ideal partner - one
equipped with vision, and agility. TM4 is a driving force that gets
the job done, fast.
TM4’s electric motor and inverter technologies are the result of more than 30 years of research and development that have led to the designs of some of the world’s most advanced drivetrains.
