Earlier post.). Kühnlenz’ outlook is that the introduction of a second, 48V system addresses new challenges for automotive electrical and electronic systems, but that most issues have now been identified with preliminary solutions already developed for introduction during the ramp up to the 95 g/km CO 2 requirement by 2020. 48V Hybrids Standards'

Four energy-storage technologies—Lead-Acid (Pb-A), Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH), and Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) batteries and Ultracapacitors (UCaps)—are used in current HEVs and are the only technologies of interest for the foreseeable future (10+ years), the report asserts.

The hybrid models available today use lead-acid ornickel-metal hydride batteries that are are proven, reliable, and fairlycheap, but their limited storage capacity means that the cars’ driving rangeusing electricity alone is short. Electric cars remain dependent on the development of better,affordable batteries.
