The hybrid module is available for all two-axle models with automatic transmission featuring the torque converter from the ample Intouro range. The Intouro hybrid only needs a single braking maneuver from 50 km/h to a standstill to charge the energy storage units. The power storage system of the Intouro hybrid consists of two modules.

Braking to a stop from a speed of 50 km/h just once is enough to recharge the power storage units in the Citaro hybrid. The power storage unit assembly in the Citaro hybrid is made up of two modules, with each module containing 16 supercaps. Both the inverter and the electric motor are water-cooled.

This approach helps overcome another issue with lithium-air batteries: As the chemical reaction involved in charging and discharging converts oxygen between gaseous and solid forms, the material goes through huge volume changes that can disrupt electrical conduction paths in the structure, severely limiting its lifetime.

In effect therefore, the more energy convertion stages there are the less efficient the process is. Whenever we take a source, convert it and then use it to generate electricity (usually steam generation) or use it to run an internal combustion engine it seems counter intuitive efficiency wise. The closest to that source is solar.

And, you have to recognize that they pull a hell of a lot of power through the local grid: there will come a time when we will see utility transformers popping from all the current being drawn (imagine just a few dozen EVs fast-charging simultaneously, on 480V at 500A: wow).
