The aim of the project was to develop an alternative Li-ion cell chemistry that could be integrated within an HEV using a bespoke battery management system. QinetiQ has also been working on lithium-ion/iron sulphide cells for a number of years. For use as a cathode material, the iron sulphide must be lithiated.

The QX60 Hybrid’s Infiniti “Direct Response Hybrid” system uses a compact Lithium-ion battery and electric motor to provide supplementary power through its one-motor/two-clutch system. The new CVT also offers two major improvements: reduced friction (a 40% drop compared to the 2004 CVT), and a wide ratio coverage.

CA, NY, MA and other states have had Zero-Emission Vehicle programs since the early 1990s because battery electric vehicles in those states, taking into account power plants, are far cleaner than gasoline cars in reducing urban air pollution and smog. The Bottom Line Plug-ins cost more mainly because batteries are expensive.

GM has announced plans for public sales in 2010, and almost every carmaker now says it will sell PHEVs or highway-speed battery electric vehicles (BEVs) sometime after 2010. Several dozen prototypes on 15-passenger van since 2004; now in second generation development; no production plans. Batteries not ready.
