seconds and 0 - 100 km/h in 9 seconds, when operating as an EV under batterypower. liter, 3-cylinder Lotus RangeExtender engine, specifically designed for hybrid vehicle applications, drives a 240 Nm, 54 kW continuous (162 kW peak) generator. Tags: City car Electric (Battery) Plug-ins.
meter long Flextreme GT/E concept illustrates the application of GM’s extended-range electric vehicle (E-REV) technology to large or mid-size vehicles, as well as compact cars such as the upcoming Ampera, the European cousin of the Chevrolet Volt. Average gasoline fuel consumption is estimated at 1.6 Earlier post.).
The extended-range electric vehicle Ampera is Europe’s Nº1 passenger electric-drive vehicle with more than 20% market share, according to Opel sales figures from May 2012. A 16 kWh lithium ion batterypowers the 111kW/150 hp electric motor of the Ampera. liter, 63 kW/86 hp gasoline engine.
The EVer (Electric Vehicle extendedrange) powertrain of the Fisker Karma. The company, which began deliveries of the Fisker Karma luxury four-door extendedrange electric sedan in December 2011, also said that it has delivered 1,000 vehicles to customers in the US and Europe. Click to enlarge.
Initial sales of the 2014 Cadillac ELR extendedrange electric luxury coupe ( earlier post ) will begin in January in all major US metropolitan areas. Powering the ELR is a combination of pure electric drive and an efficient, range-extending 1.4L gasoline-powered electric generator. A T-shaped, 16.5
80-mile all-electric range. gasoline-poweredrangeextender. kW power export that allows tools to be plugged directly into the batterypower source without the truck running. Preliminary specifications announced today include: 75 MPGe fuel efficiency in all-electric operation. Double cab.
The vehicle marks a number of firsts for Infiniti: first range-extender electric driveline; first mid-ship sports cart; first car the company has developed in Europe—and the first car it has built as part of a UK-government sponsored technology initiative. liter 35kW engine has been purpose-designed for its range-extending role.
Extendedrange electric vehicle powertrain company ALTe ( earlier post ) is tracking to produce a limited number of production-caliber vehicle powertrains by December, and plans to ramp up production in the first quarter of 2013, said CEO John Thomas in a recent interview with Green Car Congress. Earlier post.)
Traveling more than 60 km (38 miles) in all-electric mode and more than 310 miles extendedrange when engaging the 2.0L gasoline engine, this SUV sports a 10 kW electric motor (M1) paired with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission propelling the front wheels while a 75 kW electric motor (M2) powers the rear wheels.
Opel will debut the new Astra at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show; the company will also showcase the Ampera, Opel’s implementation of the Voltec extendedrange electric vehicle architecture. liter gasoline and the 1.3 Turbo gasoline engines and with the 2.0 The average fuel consumption of the gasoline line-up is 6.1
The Ampera is an extendedrange electric vehicle based on the Voltec technology used in the Chevrolet Volt. Equipped with a 16 kWh Li-ion battery pack, the five-door, four-seat hatchback has a battery-poweredrange of up to 60 km (37 miles) (MVEG cycle). Opel Ampera. Click to enlarge. Chevrolet Spark.
Rather than using batterypower, the application allows owners to start the Volt remotely to pre-condition the interior temperature using power from the grid. This preserves the battery charge for driving without gasoline. The Volt is an electric vehicle with extended-range capability.
What they got wrong was assuming that all of those vehicles would run on batterypower alone, with gasoline-electric hybrid technology bound for the technological scrap heap. Power survey also showed low levels of satisfaction among PHEV owners. The Ramcharger is whats known as an extended-range electric vehicle, or EREV.
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.
The battery weighs approximately 85 kg (187 lbs) and can be recharged in only three to four hours on a 230 V connection. In its total cost of acquisition and operation of the vehicle should be cheaper than a comparable gasoline engine, the partners said. miles) in extendedrange.
Plug-in hybrids differ from hybrids on the road today in that they can go longer distances on batterypower and can be recharged via electrical outlets. GM calls the Volt an extended-range electric vehicle, or EREV. It is different from a plug-in hybrid, or PHEV, which runs on both batterypower and gasoline.
TREV is a rangeextender system that uses a micro-turbine (fueled either by liquid or gaseous fuels) to generate electricity that charges a battery pack. The batterypowers the motors that drive the wheels. Earlier post.). seconds, 350 km/h (217 mph) restricted top speed). The two concepts.
In As EV Sales Stall, Plug-In Hybrids Get a Reboot , I describe the vanguard of this new hybrid boom: extended-range EVs like the 2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger, which boasts a range of more than 1,000 kilometers. BMW The 2025 BMW M5 sedan adds plug-in hybrid power to one of the companys iconic models. kilowatt-hour battery.
The program refers to passenger vehicles as gasoline, diesel, gas, hybrid or battery-powered small and micro vehicles registered in Beijing for more than one year, and NEVs as purely electric small and micro passenger vehicles, including extended-range electric vehicles (EREVs).
0:00 / 4:40 Batterypower for Chrysler The Circuit will be a purely plug-in car - there will be no gas tank or gasoline engine at all - with an expected range of 150 to 200 miles on a full charge. Power will come from a 200 kilowatt, or 268 horsepower, electric motor.
General Motors Chevy Volt series PHEV, which it calls "extendedrange electric vehicle" (EREV), part of "E-Flex" multi-fuel platform. Company says its focusing on gasoline and hydrogen. Shifted earlier focus to all-electric Focus in 2011 with Magna. Plans Cadillac Converj, Opel Ampera, other versions. Plans Saturn Vue PHEV-10.
The second-generation “Voltec” extendedrange electric powertrain applied in the MY2016 Chevy Volt ( earlier post ) marks a significant evolution in the electric drive technology platform from its first-generation origins. liter rangeextender engine. The range-extending engine is a 1.5-liter
Newer EVs have larger battery capacities, allowing for longer ranges and protecting against performance losses. Plug-in hybrids can mitigate cold weather concerns as they are also gas-powered for extendedrange. This may be an important feature for drivers in rural areas who routinely drive long distances.
