miles) solely on electric power, and has a total range of up to 880 kilometers (546.8 Powered by the engine, it recharges the battery and thus extends the electric range. In such situations, e.g. on a slippery road or in light off-road conditions, this essentially makes the Audi TT offroad concept an e?tron tron quattro.
The operating range particularly benefits from this. This allows decelerating to a standstill without using the brake pedal, while at the same time the range benefits from this recuperation strategy and the high recuperation power (up to 290 kW). Power for up to another 300 kilometers (WLTP) is recharged in just 15 minutes.
A new range monitoring function is helpful in everyday use: if it is activated via MBUX, several options are shown on the central display to save energy. In combination with the 10 color worlds of the ambient lighting, there are numerous individualization options. All previous functions such as media, phone, vehicle, etc.
In particular, the inherent LTO properties of long cycle life and exceptional power capability were extended to operate over a substantially wider temperature range. Under that program, Leyden achieved progress on development of its technology for micro-hybrid (i.e., start-stop vehicles, SSVs) applications in the automotive market.
Their capacity is about a third higher than that of previous batteries so that the range between recharging stops is increased considerably. All of the doors have light strips with green or red LEDs to highlight the floor edges at the entrances. The company also offers solid-state batteries as a storage option.
