The new engine comes with an electronically-controlled waste-gate to optimize flow and improve low-end torque and throttle response. 48-volt hybrid version of the i40. liter diesel powertrain, the show car is fitted with a 48-volt lead-carbon battery, boosting power by 15% and reducing CO 2 output by up to 20%. Based on a 1.7-liter

To ignore this potential is wasteful and foolish. The pure electric vehicles, for reserve, must carry heavy and expensive batteries—which add expense as well as weight—and must have access to high-powered recharging stations [ 1 ]. For an extended discussion see Appendix C). But the real story is yet to be told.

It stores 26.5 kWh of usable energy at 380 volts and weighs 300 kilograms (661 lb). Water flows around the 30 modules which constitute this battery; the waste heat is utilized to heat the vehicle’s interior. The Audi A3 e-tron can be recharged in about nine hours with a 230-volt household socket.

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. Most houses are set up with a 200amp supply so we already have a bit problem.

A chemist and government researcher, Wang raised some $300,000 from relatives, rented about 2,000 square meters of space, and set out to manufacture rechargeable batteries to compete with imports from Sony and Sanyo. Wang Chuan-Fu started BYD (the letters are the initials of the companys Chinese name) in 1995 in Shenzhen, China.

Witha 60-mile range, most felt the need to recharge after 30 miles or so. E-Flex is technically a hybrid with two power units, but unlike the ToyotaPrius, Honda Insight and various Lexus models, the engine in the Volt doesnot drive the wheels, it simply acts as an emergency generator to rechargethe batteries.

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. Battery recharging would typically take two to four hours, he said. While utilities such as E.ON

Also, besides giving you the ability to charge at night when most utility rates are lower, future vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology may allow you to sell some of your stored energy back to the utilities. Currently, there are some industrial facilities that use battery swapping to replenish the energy stores of electric forklifts.

V2G helps solve the major problem that demand for electricity is high during the day when everything from industrial plants to air conditioning is running full blast and then excess electricity is wasted at night. Several early models of passenger vehicles have enough energy stored in advanced batteries to power several homes for hours.

Newly installed CEO Fritz Henderson argues that pioneering projects like the Volt typically lose money until the technology catches on. "The Volt is a case study. " In other words, General Motors is going to lose its shirt until the Volt establishes itself in the marketplace. Wired Home Subscribe Sections Cars 2.0
