If you go distillate the actual claims from the fluff, the article is saying it has a larger torque to weight, smoother operation at low speeds, and larger efficiency at very high speeds.
And well, three is much to improve on the last two, so I'm willing to believe they got something for those, while I do expect the first claim to get completely lost once they actually produce the motor.
Cogging (non-smooth operation at low speeds) is pretty much a solved problem already. You simply program the cogging torques into the controller as a function of shaft angle, and tell it to compensate.
Final result: motor that behaves as if it had no cogging.
