With its carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) passenger cell, the BMW i8 sets new standards for a plug-in hybrid vehicle in terms of low weight. The model-specific version of the high-voltage Li-ion battery was developed and produced by the BMW Group.

Lithium-metal anodes are favored for use in next-generation rechargeable Li-air or Li-sulfur batteries due to a tenfold higher theoretical specific capacity than graphite (3,860 mAh/g vs. 372 mAh/g); light weight and lowest anode potential. Schematic and optical images of Li encapsulation by melt infusion. Liang et al.

With its new architecture, use of carbon fiber reinforced plastic, and premium mobility service offerings, the “ i3 marks the beginning of a new mobility age ,” said Dr. Reithofer. The 22 kWh Li-ion pack is integrated below the floor—the i3 has no tunnel or center console. The i3 accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.2

Aza-CMPs exhibit large capacitance, high power and energy densities (approaching those of current-generation Li-ion batteries), and enable repetitive energy storage and power supply with an excellent cycle life. The nitrogen centers interact with the electrolyte ions, thus favoring the accumulation of charge and the movement of ions.
