HELLA will conduct real-world vehicle tests to evaluate NiZn’s ability in meeting the high-power requirements of 48-volt mild hybrid systems, while substantially reducing overall system complexity and cost. It’s inherently very safe and also promises to provide equivalent emissions reductions, but at a lower cost. Click to enlarge.
