Inside EV Cooling Systems: Tesla vs GM Electric Motor Comparison

Video Description

Tesla and GM have both engineered effective cooling solutions for their electric motors—each with distinct tradeoffs. Tesla’s high-pressure oil system delivers precise, targeted cooling to critical motor components, especially the motor core where heat is most intense. While highly effective, it draws extra energy to run the oil pump, slightly reducing overall efficiency. GM, on the other hand, uses a gravity-fed oil system that relies on natural motion and existing lubrication flow. This design is more energy-efficient but demands careful engineering to maintain consistent cooling under all driving conditions. Munro Live, is the media division of Munro & Associates.
