Israel's REE Automotive has partnered with automotive structural component giant Iochpe-Maxion to co-develop and manufacture an exclusive wheel design and chassis solution for REE's corner modules and electric vehicle platform.
The REEcorner integrates all drivetrain, powertrain, suspension and steering components into the arch of the wheel, allowing for the completely flat and modular REEboard chassis.

The incorporation of Maxion's wheel and chassis design and advanced materials into the system integration process will result in REE's electric vehicle platform weighing less and having more free space for alternative propulsion sources.
"Partnering with Maxion was the clear choice for us given its advanced technical capabilities and global presence," said Tali Miller Levin, Vice President of Corporate Development at REE.
