Talos Technology

What Talos Technology does

Talos Technology is a privately held UK deep-technology engineering company founded in 2018 and headquartered in Banbury, with a team of 11–50 employees. It provides B2B electrification engineering, motor design and validation services to manufacturers across automotive, motorsport, aerospace, robotics and drone end-markets. The company is organised around four integrated disciplines: Dual Flux Electric Machines, Hybrid Powertrain Integration, NeurotorQ Design Software, and Real-Time Controls, delivered through collaborative development programmes running from concept through bench validation.

The company's core technology is its proprietary Dual Flux radial motor architecture, which combines an innovative electromagnetic topology with intelligent design to deliver high torque density and efficiency while reducing reliance on rare earth magnetic materials. Its QRM-2 dual-flux demonstrator reports 2.4 kW/kg continuous power density, 96.2% peak system efficiency, 20,000 rpm maximum operating speed, and 93.1% efficiency over NEDC duty cycles. Underpinning the hardware is NeurotorQ, an in-house platform claimed to compress electromagnetic, thermal and mechanical exploration from weeks into hours, and deterministic real-time control stacks positioned for motorsport and aerospace duty cycles.

Talos generates revenue as a professional services provider, monetising custom motor design, powertrain integration studies, control software, and engineering consultation under project-based, quote-driven engagements. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales with website-led inbound engagement, including an Interactive Configurator that lets prospects generate real-time performance insights. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. Primary customers are electric vehicle manufacturers, with secondary use-cases in electric motorcycles, robotics, and drone/aerospace systems.

Core offering

Talos Technology is a deep-tech engineering company that designs and develops custom electric and hybrid powertrains built around its proprietary Dual Flux motor architecture. It offers four integrated capabilities—Dual Flux Electric Machines, Hybrid Powertrain Integration, NeurotorQ in-house design software, and Real-Time Controls—delivered as collaborative development programmes from concept through bench validation for automotive, motorsport, aerospace, robotics, and drone customers.

Product overview

Talos Technology offers an integrated portfolio of electric and hybrid powertrain solutions built around proprietary Dual Flux Technology. The core offerings comprise Dual Flux Electric Machines (radial dual-flux topologies for torque density and efficiency), Hybrid Powertrain Integration (combining e-machines with combustion units), NeurotorQ Design Software (in-house design platform for accelerated electromagnetic and thermal exploration), and Real-Time Controls (deterministic motor control software for motorsport and aerospace). These products form a unified engineering programme where the NeurotorQ software enables rapid design iteration that feeds into the physical motor and control system offerings for automotive, two-wheel, robotics, and aerospace applications.

Direct peers

• Equipmake: UK electric motor and powertrain developer for automotive, bus, and aerospace applications. Closely comparable to Talos in geography, product scope (electric motors, hybrid powertrains), and customer verticals.
• YASA: UK-based axial-flux electric motor specialist serving automotive and aerospace, directly comparable to Talos in technology category, target customers, and origin. Both design high-performance, low-weight e-machines for premium EV and aerospace programmes.
• EMRAX: Slovenian manufacturer of axial-flux permanent-magnet and induction motors for EVs, aerospace, and marine. Comparable product portfolio and target customer segments to Talos's electric machines.
• Turntide Technologies: Developer of switched reluctance electric motors and integrated powertrain systems for commercial vehicles, HVAC, and industrial applications. Comparable in rare-earth-free motor architecture and integrated software/controls approach.
• Magnax: Developer of high-power-density axial-flux motors for EVs, aerospace, and marine. Directly comparable to Talos as a motor-architecture innovator focused on torque density and efficiency without heavy rare-earth content.
• Evolito: UK-based manufacturer of axial-flux electric motors and power electronics for aerospace eVTOL and EV applications. Overlaps with Talos on motor technology, customer verticals, and UK base.

Broad incumbents

• Nidec Motor Corporation: One of the world's largest manufacturers of electric motors and powertrains, including traction motors for EVs. Comparable in core motor product and automotive electrification focus, but as a global, broad-line incumbent rather than a niche specialist.
• Safran Electrical & Power: Global tier-1 supplier of electric power systems, motors, and generators for aerospace. Comparable in aerospace electric motor and controls offering, but operates as a broad incumbent across the full aerospace value chain.

Emerging players

• H3X Technologies: US-based developer of high-power-density electric motors for aerospace and defense. Comparable in motor-innovation focus and aerospace customer base, though typically higher power class than Talos's primary QRM-2 demonstrator.
• Wright Electric: US-based startup developing electric propulsion systems for commercial aircraft. Comparable in the deep-tech, aerospace-focused electric powertrain engineering model, though positioned more towards full propulsion systems than discrete motors.
