The MEB will be the foundation for an entirely new generation of battery-electric vehicles designed not only to be electric and feature extended range, but to be connected, autonomous, open and priced for the volume market as required by Volkswagen’s positioning. The first production MEB vehicle, a version of the I.D.

From Resource-Media: Much as one would weigh the pros and cons of a two-wheel-drive vehicle on snow or a diesel truck in extreme cold, consumers should consider an EV’s cold-weather hardiness when shopping. Newer EVs have larger battery capacities, allowing for longer ranges and protecting against performance losses.

The PRO is the basic work truck, starting with a smaller of the two battery packs (still with 230 miles of range), but retailing for less than $40,000, including four-wheel drive and 775 foot-pounds of torque. The XLT adds the larger battery, increasing the range to 300 miles and adding some standard equipment for just under $53,000.

miles per diesel gallon equivalent (DGE). Accessory loads contribute to the overall range capability, as more than 50% of “system on” time is spent at a speed of 0 mph where lighting and HVAC loads are still required. Another challenge is training operators and maintenance staff in the differences between BEBs and conventional buses.

Most participants noted that developing fuel cell bus maintenance facilities was not as challenging as expected. Key challenges to commercialization revealed by the demonstrations were: Vehicle Range. The most significant challenge was range. Operating range of HICE buses is also limited, requiring buses to be refueled mid-day.

Each of the extended-range shuttles will emit about 90,000 fewer pounds of carbon dioxide over its lifetime compared to gasoline-fueled counterparts. Historically, propane autogas costs up to 40% less than gasoline and 50% less than diesel, and reduces maintenance costs due to its clean-burning properties.

(In this paper PHEV refers solely to the long-range PHEV of 60 miles (100 km) electric-only range.) The PHEV does not require the heavy, costly batteries required by other electric cars, nor does it suffer from a limited range or poor freeway performance. It offers a range of elegant solutions to a number of problems.
