A wheel assembly, comprising: a wheel hub; a wheel rotatably mounted on the wheel hub; an in-wheel electric motor including a stator mounted on the wheel hub and a rotor coupled to the wheel such that the rotor and wheel rotate together relative to the stator and wheel hub; and at least one wheel assembly bushing (84a-c) comprising a radially inner bushing member, a radially outer body that is concentrically arranged about and radially spaced from the inner bushing member, and a resilient sleeve positioned radially between the inner bushing member and the outer body, wherein the at least one wheel assembly bushing includes a hydraulic chamber positioned within the resilient sleeve and a fluid channel extending between first and second fluid channel ends that are arranged in fluid communication with the hydraulic chamber, wherein the fluid channel is configured as an inertia-track where fluid flow through the fluid channel produces inertance within the at least one wheel assembly bushing that operates to reduce magnetic gap deformation between the stator and the rotor of the in-wheel electric motor, wherein the at least one wheel assembly bushing includes a divider body within the resilient sleeve that extends into the hydraulic chamber to divide the hydraulic chamber into first and second hydraulic chamber segments (108, 110) and a fluid passageway that causes hydraulic resistance and damping when the fluid flows between the first and second hydraulic chamber segments through the fluid passageway, wherein the fluid passageway is an annular opening that forms a pinch point in the hydraulic chamber that limits fluid flow between the first and second hydraulic chamber segments such that the fluid passageway in the hydraulic chamber and the fluid channel cooperate to produce a phase delay between input forces causing relative movement between the inner bushing member and the outer body and reaction forces caused by pressure pulses in the hydraulic chamber resulting from the fluid flow through the fluid passageway and the fluid channel. a wheel hub; a wheel rotatably mounted on the wheel hub; an in-wheel electric motor including a stator mounted on the wheel hub and a rotor coupled to the wheel such that the rotor and wheel rotate together relative to the stator and wheel hub; and at least one wheel assembly bushing (84a-c) comprising a radially inner bushing member, a radially outer body that is concentrically arranged about and radially spaced from the inner bushing member, and a resilient sleeve positioned radially between the inner bushing member and the outer body, wherein the at least one wheel assembly bushing includes a hydraulic chamber positioned within the resilient sleeve and a fluid channel extending between first and second fluid channel ends that are arranged in fluid communication with the hydraulic chamber, wherein the fluid channel is configured as an inertia-track where fluid flow through the fluid channel produces inertance within the at least one wheel assembly bushing that operates to reduce magnetic gap deformation between the stator and the rotor of the in-wheel electric motor, wherein the at least one wheel assembly bushing includes a divider body within the resilient sleeve that extends into the hydraulic chamber to divide the hydraulic chamber into first and second hydraulic chamber segments (108, 110) and a fluid passageway that causes hydraulic resistance and damping when the fluid flows between the first and second hydraulic chamber segments through the fluid passageway, wherein the fluid passageway is an annular opening that forms a pinch point in the hydraulic chamber that limits fluid flow between the first and second hydraulic chamber segments such that the fluid passageway in the hydraulic chamber and the fluid channel cooperate to produce a phase delay between input forces causing relative movement between the inner bushing member and the outer body and reaction forces caused by pressure pulses in the hydraulic chamber resulting from the fluid flow through the fluid passageway and the fluid channel.
