Such a standard will be necessary for the global automotive industry to achieve the economies of scale demanded by original equipment manufacturers. This means that in addition the power demand is more difficult to achieve with engine downsizing and transmission down-speeding alone. Click to enlarge. The conference.

To achieve these results, PureTech development called for a number of changes, chief among which were: Downsizing. A three-cylinder engine has a number of advantages over a four-cylinder powerplant, including reduced energy loss through friction, fewer moving parts, lower weight and more compact dimensions, all of which cut fuel consumption.

The company’s engineers have a prototype system running in a B-segment donor vehicle on a dynamometer and are calibrating the control strategy to prove its driveability, performance, CO 2 and fuel economy benefits. Both solutions involve part load losses which compromise some of the fuel consumption savings made by downsizing.

Though the PHEV combines the two types of energy and power, it is not merely a temporary “transition” between gasoline and diesel cars to pure electric cars. It solves the storage problems faced by the electric utility companies in absorbing and adapting to the highly variable power and energy generated by solar and wind. slow charge.
