Electric trucks demand robust motor control solutions that deliver high torque, withstand harsh environments, and maximize energy efficiency. GTAKE leverages years of expertise in AC drives and EV motor control units to provide a comprehensive range of truck motor controllers tailored for light‑duty logistics vehicles, medium‑duty trucks, and heavy‑duty haulers. Our controllers are engineered to integrate seamlessly with permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) and induction motors, ensuring optimal performance in every application.
EV HEV Motor Controllers for Trucks
GTAKE’s truck motor controller portfolio covers all power classes with three main series:
-
D Series Controllers – Including D03, D06, D08, D09, D11 EV HEV motor controllers. Designed for light‑duty trucks and urban delivery vehicles, offering compact size and fast dynamic response.
-
G Series Controllers – Including G02, G03, G04, G05 EV HEV motor controllers. Built for medium to heavy trucks, they support wider voltage ranges and deliver higher peak currents for demanding tasks.
-
M Series Traction Controllers – Including M03, M04, M15, M16 frame EV HEV traction motor controllers. Modular design simplifies integration, and they are ideal for heavy‑duty trucks, port tractors, and mining trucks. Dual‑motor drive capability is available for high‑power applications.
Why GTAKE Truck Motor Controllers?
Rugged IP67 Protection
Trucks operate in dust, water spray, and vibration‑prone environments. GTAKE controllers feature IP67 enclosures, ensuring reliable operation in mines, ports, and construction sites.
High Overload Capacity for Heavy Loads
With up to 150% instantaneous overload capability, our controllers provide the extra torque needed for fully loaded hill starts and steep ramps without slipping.
Efficient Regenerative Braking
Intelligent energy recovery algorithms capture braking energy and feed it back to the battery, extending driving range and reducing total cost of ownership – especially valuable for stop‑and‑go city trucks and long‑distance coaches.
Flexible Communication Interfaces
All controllers support CANopen (CiA 402) protocol, enabling seamless communication with the vehicle control unit (VCU), battery management system (BMS), and other onboard electronics. They are compatible with both PMSM and AC induction motors.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What types of motors are compatible with GTAKE truck motor controllers?
A: Our controllers are primarily designed for permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM), but they also work with AC induction motors. Field‑oriented control (FOC) algorithms ensure smooth and efficient operation.
Q: Can GTAKE controllers support dual‑motor drive systems?
A: Yes, G series and M series controllers can be configured in master‑slave mode for dual‑motor drive axles, enabling torque vectoring and improved traction on slippery or uneven terrain.
Q: How is thermal management handled during long climbs?
A: All controllers employ liquid cooling (water or oil) combined with intelligent thermal management. The controller continuously monitors IGBT temperature and adjusts switching frequency and output current to prevent overheating during sustained heavy loads.
Q: Do you offer testing equipment for electric truck components?
A: Absolutely. GTAKE supplies the PCBS series battery pack test system and PBDS series bidirectional DC power supply, helping manufacturers validate performance of motors, controllers, and batteries during R&D and production.
