The SsangYong e-Motion 200 is a 150 kW permanent-magnet synchronous electric motor integrated with a single-speed reduction gearbox, engineered for the Torres EVX compact SUV (2023–2025). It combines liquid-cooled power electronics with a high-efficiency rotor design to deliver responsive urban driving and stable motorway cruising. Designed to meet UN R100 Rev.3 and Euro 6d (zero-emission) standards, it prioritizes safety, efficiency, and drivability.

The SsangYong e-Motion 200 is used exclusively in SsangYong's KEV1 BEV platform with transverse mounting and no external licensing. This motor received platform-specific integration—custom motor mounts, high-voltage harness routing, and inverter placement optimized for crash safety—and from Q2 2024 the updated inverter firmware (v3.1.7) improved cold-weather charging stability, though hardware remains unchanged. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.
Engine Finders UK Ltd, which operates EngineCode.uk, can pass your enquiry to engine suppliers in the UK. The service is for vehicles in the United Kingdom, with UK delivery or fitting. This is a commercially connected service, and sending an enquiry does not confirm diagnosis or compatibility.
Diagnostic reminder: If a technician has recommended replacing the engine, you can send an enquiry to engine suppliers in the UK. Confirm the diagnosis first: an engine-code record does not diagnose a fault.
Field reports and technical service bulletins highlight component wear patterns under high-load operation. Adherence to manufacturer service intervals and approved fluid specifications is critical for long-term reliability.

The most common questions about engine codes, what they mean, how to find them and how this database works
The e-Motion 200 is mechanically simple with no combustion-related wear, offering strong long-term reliability if maintained properly. Its main concern is inverter behavior in extreme cold, resolved via firmware updates. With no oil, filters, or exhaust, maintenance is minimal—focus on 12V battery health, coolant integrity, and software updates to ensure longevity beyond 200,000 km.
Key issues include inverter power derating in sub-zero temperatures, 12V battery drain during extended parking, inconsistent regenerative braking at low state-of-charge, and minor coolant loop leaks. These are documented in SsangYong service bulletins TSB‑EV‑2024‑02 and workshop updates.
The e-Motion 200 powers only the Torres EVX (2023–2025), SsangYong’s first dedicated battery-electric vehicle. It is not used in any other model or by external manufacturers.
No. SsangYong does not support aftermarket tuning of the e-Motion 200. The motor, inverter, and battery management system are tightly integrated, and software modifications void warranty and may compromise safety certifications. Power output is fixed by factory calibration.
In the Torres EVX, expect ~16.5 kWh/100km (city) and ~19.2 kWh/100km (highway), or about 4.1–4.8 mi/kWh. Real-world mixed driving typically yields 4.3–4.6 mi/kWh, depending on climate control use and driving style.
No. As a fully electric drive unit, it uses no engine oil. However, the single-speed gearbox contains a sealed lubricant (SsangYong EV Gear Oil) designed to last the vehicle’s lifetime under normal conditions—no user service is required.
It uses SsangYong EV Coolant Type A (pink, ethylene-glycol based), in a sealed loop for motor and inverter cooling. Inspect every 24 months; replacement interval is 8 years or 160,000 km per SsangYong TIS guidelines.
