Battery electric vehicles rely solely on electric motors for propulsion. They derive their electricity primarily from charging points and store it in powerful battery packs. One of the key benefits of battery electric vehicles is that they produce no local exhaust emissions when driving and run quietly.
Turbocharged engines
Turbocharged engines can provide ample power at low engine speeds, where they are used most often. Direct fuel injection supports precise fuel delivery and smooth engine response.
Brake energy recovery
During deceleration, the brake energy recovery system uses an intelligent alternator to store part of the recovered energy in the battery. The stored energy can then support the vehicle’s electrical systems.
Gear recommendation
The gear recommendation function helps the driver choose an appropriate gear. A symbol on the instrument cluster confirms the selected gear or recommends changing up or down.
Start-Stop system
When the vehicle is stationary, the Start-Stop system can automatically switch the engine off and restart it when needed. It is activated automatically after the engine starts and can be manually switched off at any time.
