Kia launching new diesel 48V mild-hybrid powertrain in 2018 on Sportage; more models to come

Green Car Congress

MAY 15, 2018

Kia Motors will introduce its first 48V diesel mild-hybrid powertrain in the second half of 2018. The new “EcoDynamics+” powertrain supplements acceleration with electric power from an additional 48-volt battery and extends combustion engine ‘off time’ using a new Mild-Hybrid Starter-Generator unit.

However, while Mazda plans to offer hybrid vehicles in the medium-term, its engineers are pushing hard to increase the efficiencies of both the gasoline and diesel platforms, moving toward what they call “the ideal Internal Combustion Engine.” Extreme compression ratio rather than downsizing. Although downsizing—i.e.,

At 48 volts, a VTES electric supercharger will transform 7kW of battery power into a highly boosted charge of air for downsized gasoline and diesel engines. Following this initial assessment by carmakers, the vehicle will then be re-built with a 48 volt electrical system.

The flywheel is downsized to give a continuum between shift of gears, else unlike a ICE engine, when you take your leg off the pedal, the motor goes zero torque when you are re-engaging gears. The current battery pack is 48 V NMC chemistry with about 8 kWh of storage.

Hyundai is also displaying the diesel i40 48V hybrid concept, featuring a lead-carbon battery. The relocated and re-engineered turbo means throttle response time and low-end torque have improved. The lead-carbon battery was chosen due to its excellent power-to-cost ratio, rapid charging capability and high levels of durability.

This CO 2 level is comparable to that emitted by equivalent sized full hybrid vehicles, yet avoids their need for high voltage and the significant impact a hybrid’s large batteries and traction motors have on overall vehicle cost, mass and packaging. Hence the industry trend to dual-charging systems, CPT notes.

The PHEV does not require the heavy, costly batteries required by other electric cars, nor does it suffer from a limited range or poor freeway performance. Though the PHEV combines the two types of energy and power, it is not merely a temporary “transition” between gasoline and diesel cars to pure electric cars. slow charge.
