Nice to see proper componants not the cheap nylon gears in all the main ebike motors.

I noticed the same thing

[@bernstock]

German Engineering⚡️

[@FWCaptain-kv6sm]

Looks great but it’s never available in our area

[@drill_fiend1097]

Better built than Bosch imo

[@brauliovara]

Gear Is well developed 👌

[@rtv1196]

Is it a small brushed DC motor with the red and black wires soldered? What is its purpose?

[@jonjo_irure]

I don´t like that... I don´t know the purpose of the actuator but sooner o later the brushes will wear out. The cables are going out of the case, could be something to just power the exhibition model?

[@Boediprasetya]

I think small DC motor for actuator shifting gear

[@Chretze]

That's for shifting I believe. Of course, "at some point" the brushes on that will wear out, but given that it's not doing any hard work comparatively speaking, it will last many many years before that will become a problem.
Pinion knows about this 100% and I'm sure they made the decision actively to go with a brushed motor instead of brushless.
