The Cascadia Motion IM375 electric motor is now available and is in brand-new condition, making it the perfect solution for your high-performance project needs. With a peak power of 400kW (537hp) at 700Vdc and a maximum torque of 580Nm, this motor is designed to deliver exceptional efficiency and performance. Built using the advanced CM350 inverter and HVH250 motor core, the IM375 is a robust and reliable choice for your project needs.

In addition to its impressive performance, the IM375 also features several integrated features such as an oil pump, water pump, and oil cooler, ensuring optimal operation and longevity. The shallow sump depth of 170mm from the shaft centerline to the bottom and compact design of only 300mm in axial length and 424mm in total height make it an ideal choice for space-conscious projects.

With a maximum voltage of 850Vdc (with CM350DZ inverter), the IM375 also boasts auxiliary ports for optional external oil connections, enabling increased low-speed continuous torque. Furthermore, it provides transmission connection bolt patterns including 6-bolt 'Cascadia pattern', 16-bolt 'Remy pattern' (e.g. SR309 gearbox), and 4-bolt Porsche G50 pattern.

This unit was from a project that never was completed. We were about to start the assembly and the client decided to discontinue the effort. The motor has never been installed and is in brand-new condition. Buyer is responsible for shipping.

Honestly, I do not know. We received the unit in May 2022. I do not know if Cascadia allows for warranty transfers from one seller to another. You could call them and ask but I am unsure and afraid to speak on their policies. Sorry I cannot be more helpful on that topic.

Uh, no, this unit cost more plus shipping than what is being asked, also with any online posting I'm assuming there will be the element of haggling. I also purchased some CM350 standalone inverters for $12,750 for a Borg Warner that I have. This unit is the motor/inverter combo that is built as a single unit and includes the integrated oil pump, CM350 inverter and Borg Warner Motor.

Good point on the warranty. I will take a look at the documents to see what the warranty is/was.

Looking at the Eluminator, that is a cool motor, however it's just the motor with the inverter harness but no traction inverter. Plus the Eluminator peak power is 281HP vs the Cascadia Motion which is 537HP so apples to oranges on that comparison. If it's not the motor for you that's fine but I think the comparison is not apt.

I looked up the warranty - it's 12 months from the date of delivery so it's almost out of the warranty period.
