[EVDL] Looking for information on Continental AC Motor

Turbulent times....

2006, Ballard selling electric drive operations to Siemens VDO

July 2007:
Munich - In a back-to-back deal, Siemens has sold its automobile
components unit VDO to Continental of Germany and is buying a US maker
of medical equipment, the German electronics conglomerate said
Wednesday.

2008, Brose, a privately held manufacturer of window regulators, door
systems and seat adjusters, agreed last month to purchase the former
Siemens VDO=92s electric motor operations from new owner Continental.

t.aspx

The trail seems to end at Brose, they have no information about
traction drives on their website, but maybe they'll answer questions.

This greencarcongress piece mentions 100kW under a picture of what
looks like your motor.
http://www.greencarcongress.com/2006/12/ballard_selling.html

this article says 45kW

The wayback machine has some info, it doesn't look like your motor is
one of the standard products, part number is similar though.

I'm guessing yours is a custom job.
