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. It’s an efficient way of using 7kW of stored electrical power to deliver not less than six times that at the crankshaft. With performance similar to that of the 1.8

The concept of “intelligent electrification” enables highly aggressive engine downsizing and down-speeding beyond what might normally be possible other than through more expensive hybridization approaches. Ricardo believes the above package is very competitive with other fuel economy solutions such as full hybridization.

Porsche retained the basic concept of its Class 1 Le Mans Prototype (LMP1) for the second generation: a downsized turbocharged direct injection gasoline engine and two different energy recovery systems. The driver can call up power from the cells—more than 400 hp if he engages the full-boost function.
