Not resolved at all,still many (many) issues on the new motors (mainly know Levo motors).
I know riders on their 5/6/7th motor on the new version.

Regarding the new one,it may be a great motor,but in the end a bike brand need to pick it over other offerings
that are maybe "safer" for them (mainly Bosch).
What production date and which issues?

Up till the recent batches of the 2.2.
Main issues are clutches and some belts.Alot of high pitch up and down "whining" noises and after some time if not replaced total failure.
I have real info (numbers) that indicates it's only a little more reliable than in the past.
Also know the same issues on the Sram S mag motors.

Believe me those numbers are down to a fraction since 2022/2023 .

It’s tough to call this without actual samples and data. There are threads on here ranting about Bosch reliability, and I know guys with over 5000miles on motors they’ve abused through British winters. There are people who’ve had 5 brose motors in 6 months, there are people who have had 3 years from one motor. Without seeing large scale numbers and failure rate, it’s impossible to say how reliable any given motor is.

Do you know about any riders with 5 Bosch motors in 6 months?
I have actual data about Bosch gen4 on a certain European brand and Brose On Levo's .
It's not even close !!

You have to compare Motors from 22/23 on , the belt issue was clear and is solved.

I am talking about 23/24
Most issues now are clutches.

Can you give more insight on the new motor and which bike did you ride with it ?

I rode it on the Brose Testbike like it is shown in the emtb news Video.

95 Nm, powerful and still natural ride feeling and quietest Motor in this category ( no whining even under full load)
