I know press releases never describe anything that's actually novel, but it looks like they're just describing an asynchronous induction motor? I'm wondering if this release is implicitly pretending that some "low slip ratio" motor is "basically" synchronous

Just guessing, does ZF mostly put out induction motors, and they need to make them look less unfashionable so that people choose them for new designs?

ZF is generally known for gearboxes, a huge amount of manufacturers use their transmissions in their cars. New corvette uses a zf 10 speed I think, same with vw and BMW.
