In an open-access paper published in Scientific Reports , a team from Fraunhofer ISI and KIT (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) has presented the first systematic overview of empirical findings on the electrification of vehicle mileage based on on actual PHEV (plug-in hybrid) and BEV (battery-electric vehicle) usage for the US and Germany.

“Our planet’s oceans are full of information that can help us protect at-risk marine life, allow ships to select more fuel-efficient routes, crack down on illegal fishing, better understand the impacts of climate change, and more,” Angus says. The IEEE member also belongs to the IEEE Oceanic Engineering Society.

And before I start, I just wanted to tell you that you can get the latest coverage of Spectrum ‘s most important beats, including AI, climate change, and robotics, by signing up for one of our free newsletters. We just recharge this small rechargeable battery indoor and outdoor, just continues to charge all the time.

We will get to how it all works in a moment, but the short version is that, while you still get a petrol engine with your electric motors, the former is only used to recharge the battery or deliver power to the motors — it never actually drives the wheels — giving you what Nissan calls an “EV-like” drive experience, and improved fuel efficiency.

The hub contains a motor, 3-speed internal hub gear, batteries, a torque sensor, GPRS and a sensor kit that monitors CO, NO x , noise (db), relative humidity and temperature. Pedal backwards, and the regenerative braking is engaged, helping to recharge the system’s batteries; pedal fast, and you get the extra boost of power.

For increased recharging, there is an “L” button on the gear selector wheel. The Escape PHEV uses regenerative braking, which converts kinetic energy into electric energy and stores it in the battery when applying the brakes or coasting.

Both vehicles employ an 18.3kWh BYD Blade battery – which uses the LFP battery chemistry popular on entry-level Teslas and all BYD EVs – and can plug in and recharge at up to 7kW AC and 18kW DC; that DC charging is unusual for PHEVs, because most only accept AC charging. There is no spare tyre, but there is a repair kit.
