Scalable Hybrids for Optimal CO2 Efficiency
Magna has been developing and manufacturing hybrid transmissions for many years, even before electric vehicles were the main focus of the automotive industry. Magna’s hybrid transmission families DHD family and Eco family offer highly efficient products based on field-proven technologies and are scalable from 48V mild hybrid to 800V high voltage systems, spanning A to E vehicle segments.
Decades of Expertise: Magna's hybrid systems leverage decades of mature transmission technology and electrification experience. They meet OEM requirements for various vehicle applications and global market needs. This expertise, plus our global footprint, make us your preferred hybridization partner.
Package-Efficient and Economical: Designed for package efficiency, Magna’s hybrid families offer significant economies of scale in vehicle production and ensure optimal CO2 reduction across different segments and markets.
Our HEV/PHEV Product Highlight
Dedicated Hybrid Drive Duo
Achieving zero emissions is a long-distance run. Leverage our extensive ICE-Hybrid-BEV experience and global footprint with Magna's DHD Duo family.
The DHD Duo family is a two e-motor system suitable for HEV and PHEV applications. It delivers outstanding performance, high drivability, and comfort even when driving in congested traffic through parallel, serial, and purely electric driving modes.
Developed with a platform approach, the 800V DHD Duo is scalable in power and number of gears to meet B to E vehicle segment requirements. It is available in both inline and transverse designs.

48 Volt Mild Hybrid Products
Magna’s mild hybrid transmissions maximize CO2 savings, while being more cost-effective than high-voltage hybrid drives even on vehicle level. Our products set a benchmark for power density as well as efficiency, providing interchangeable flexibility with conventional vehicle platforms. In addition, the Magna 48-volt solution is the first in the market to enable all-electric driving for low vehicle speeds and maneuvering and parking in a series application.
- Our mild hybrid transmissions feature a torque-split architecture with an integrated e-motor, offering convenient electric driving capability and up to 19% fuel efficiency improvement compared to DCTs.
These transmissions provide reliability, safety, and high performance with the reuse of mature technologies, ASIL C compliance, up to 400 Nm ICE torque capacity, and a class-leading torque-to-weight ratio. They also ensure high commonality with all DCT-based Magna transmissions.
HEV Products
Leveraging extensive experience with hybridized dual-clutch transmissions Magna offers products tailored to any market and segment need with our hybridized dual clutch transmissions (Eco family) for all HEVs.
The Eco family simplifies hybrid concepts by incorporating a powerful e-motor. Shifting the vehicle's dynamic operation towards the e-motor minimizes the need for several gears, resulting in a more cost-effective hybrid transmission solution. Available as transverse application and in a parallel architecture for B to E segments and SUVs.
Magna’s 48V scalable Eco transmission family offers flexible electrification levels within one platform: DCT, 48V HEV, and HV HEV/PHEV at best torque-to-weight ratios and minimized packaging needs.
In addition to the Eco family Magna offers the new developed two e-motor transmission DHD Duo as a product for use in HEV A to E segment vehicles and SUVs.
PHEV Products
With it’s DHD Eco (one e-motor architecture) and DHD Duo (two e-motor architecture) Manga offers powerful and cost-efficient products for Plug-in hybrids supporting BEV-like driving. Designed to optimize combustion engine usage, reducing fuel consumption and emissions, while enhancing traction, launch acceleration, and stop-and-go operation. Our portfolio covers vehicles from A to E segment incl. SUVs.
Magna’s cost-efficient plug-in hybrid transmissions reduces fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
Modular and scalable design makes it adaptable to different vehicle segments, markets, and range requirements.
