StoreDot, the developer of extreme fast charging (XFC) battery technology ( earlier post ), says it will soon be manufacturing silicon-dominant batteries that enable car makers to design and produce cheaper, lighter and more sustainable EVs. This technology will deliver 100 miles (160 km) of range in just five minutes of charge.

Maximum EVs nonetheless usefulness a dated platform of 400 volts, however a minimal 800-volt platform would release joule losses and make allowance high-voltage cabling to be downsized, bettering potency and slicing weight. By way of getting rid of space anxiousness, we will quash the upcoming stifler of EV adoption, which is worth.

At 48 volts, a VTES electric supercharger will transform 7kW of battery power into a highly boosted charge of air for downsized gasoline and diesel engines. There will be no torque deficit or other tradeoffs from essential engine downsizing and higher gearing, which now dominates the development of internal combustion engines.

Takashi Moriya, Senior Chief Engineer at Honda R&D, re-iterated Honda’s strategic focus on electrification as the main pathway toward reducing greenhouse gases, and shift to renewable sources of energy. The main difference he stated is charging time and storage of electrical energy on the vehicle. Earlier post ).

From a powertrain frame of reference, Mazda is planning a building block strategy—i.e., Extreme compression ratio rather than downsizing. Although downsizing—i.e., Regenerative braking can thus serve as the predominant source of power to charge the battery.

The path to realizing the goal is to build on the strong legacy of fuels and engines work sponsored by the vehicle and bioenergy technologies offices over the past several decades. We’ve been accused of that; people still say we are, but we’re not. We’re not going to say “Ethanol. Ethanol is the answer.”

It has now re-established it as an electrified sub-brand of GMC. But it’s the EV we’re most interested because it will likely use the 800V electrical architecture from the Kia EV6 and EV9. A sizeable 142kWh battery pack was claimed to cover about 320km between charges. The claimed 0-60mph (0-96km/h) time was 4.5
