    The YASA axial flux motors benefit from much shorter windings and direct oil cooling which gives an unparalleled performance proposition.  
      
    A 200kW peak-power radial motor, run continuously, might typically give 50% of peak power between 80 and 100kW, as a result of thermal limitations. In contrast, a 200kW YASA motor runs continuously at 150kW thanks to the improved high-thermal-contact cooling that oil offers.
