DRIVE
February 19, 2026
This document describes, among other things, a vehicle power system that includes a traction battery, a six-phase inverter divided into two groups of six switches, a six-phase motor, and a pair of switches. In drive mode, the switches configure the inverter to connect the traction battery and the motor. In plug-in mode, the system reconfigures so that one group of switches connects an AC source to the motor, while the other group connects the motor to the traction battery.
