The electric powertrain and the high-performance battery with 400 volts are AMG-exclusive, in-house developments. For comparison, conventional batteries without direct cooling of the cells achieve about half this figure. The basis for the high performance of the AMG 400-volt battery is its innovative direct cooling system.

Since I was attending the Detroit Auto Show, I could replicate my UK trip for comparison. I’m not surprised as they are two of the most advanced EVs on the market, thanks mainly to their 800-volt architecture, which offers a higher capacity battery and faster charging. Even at that young age, John was impressed.

Porsche is also pushing the use of 800-volt technology in the Mission E—as it does in its 919 Le Mans racer. The higher the power density of a cell, the faster energy can be recharged and released. This makes the Mission E fit for the circuit race track; its lap time on the Nürburgring Nordschleife is under the eight-minute mark.
