The system will be an on-board power source with scalable power offerings and will complement the Rolls-Royce Electrical propulsion portfolio, enabling extendedrange on sustainable aviation fuels and later as it comes available through hydrogen combustion. —Rob Watson, President – Rolls Royce Electrical.
Balqon Corporation, an emerging developer and manufacturer of zero emissions heavy-duty electric vehicles for Class 7 and Class 8 applications ( earlier post ), introduced a lithium-ion batterypowered heavy-duty electric truck designed for use in on-highway short-haul applications at the Governors’ Global Climate Summit in Los Angeles, California.
The turbogenerator system will complement the Rolls-Royce Electrical propulsion portfolio by delivering an on-board power source with scalable power offerings between 500kW and 1200kW enabling extendedrange on sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) and later, as it becomes available, through hydrogen combustion.
The Chevrolet Volt’s all-new second-generation Voltec extended-range electric propulsion system ( earlier post ) delivers 53 miles (85 km) of all-electric range, based on EPA testing. Chevrolet expects many next-generation Volt owners will use power solely from their batteries for more than 90% of trips.
Low weight is essential for an electric vehicle because more weight requires more batterypower for the same range and thus causes higher costs. miles) in extendedrange. The unit with a thermal heating power of about 4.5 More weight also means less dynamics for the same performance.
The fully electric van—based on the Mercedes-Benz eSprinter—combines a variety of innovative solutions designed to improve the quality of life in cities; to conserve resources and protect the climate; and to better the health and safety of the driver and other road users. This reduces energy use accordingly.
A supporting goal is the development of production-ready batteries, power electronics, and electric machines that can be cost-effectively produced in volume to support the introduction of EDVs. The FOA defines seven areas of interest for applications: Cell and Battery Manufacturing Facilities.
Both the BYD Atto 3 Standard Range and Atto 3 ExtendedRange are now $3512 cheaper than before. inch infotainment system, wireless Apple CarPlay, a fun karaoke game and a ‘Camping Mode’ setting that allows owners to run climate control while the car’s turned off. EVs in demand!
General Motors Chevy Volt series PHEV, which it calls "extendedrange electric vehicle" (EREV), part of "E-Flex" multi-fuel platform. Some experts predict that such a battery - or a similar battery - could be production-ready by 2010 to 2012.Larry When asked, are batteries ready yet, he said flat-out "no."
Plug-in hybrids can mitigate cold weather concerns as they are also gas-powered for extendedrange. Gas and diesel vehicle owners in cold climates face reduced mileage, frozen fluid lines, dead batteries, and long warm-up periods. Electric vehicles are popular in cold climates.
