GM first applied the process on the Chevrolet Volt and further refined it for ELR. Using only the energy stored in the battery, the ELR will deliver a GM-estimated range of about 35 miles (56 km) of pure electric driving, depending on terrain, driving techniques and temperature. foot-long (1.6

The basic equation governing the charging of batteries is W = V * A, or to put it into words, Watts equals Volts times Amps. An EV like this would need to store 6KWHrs of power in the batteries if we assume the system is 100% efficient.

And in a true smart grid, electric cars will not only be able to draw on electricity to run their motors, they will also be able to do the reverse: send electricity stored in their batteries back into the grid when it is needed. “Electric vehicles could be connected to the grid and could store energy at times when too much is produced
