MAZDA CX 90 MILD HYBRID ELECTRIC VEHICLE

 Hybrid System

This mild hybrid system, like the PHEV, has the engine, motor, and transmission mounted on the same axis.

It has the advantage of being able to combine various engines and motors types. This is the background for adopting a 48V system for this mild hybrid. In the conventional system, some regeneration amount is lost when engine braking is applied during deceleration.

RENAULT E-TECH HYBRID

Renault was one of the leading electric vehicle manufacturer in Europe, with ZOE in the passenger car. In other side they also produce commercial vehicle in term of electric propulsion, KANGOO Z.E was the model.

In the competition in hybrid vehicle, Renault has technology called E-TECH, which is officially was taken from Formula 1 technology. E-TECH originally came from idea that electric machine was supported by internal combustion engine.

There are two technology, first E-TECH hybrid and second, E-TECH plug-in hybrid.
The big different between them are : E-TECH hybrid vehicle will charge its traction battery during braking and deceleration meanwhile W-TECH plug-in hybrid vehicle will charge during braking, deceleration and external electric source, for instance home electricity, charging station.

We should realize that the automobile industry are shifting from fossil-fuel vehicle to renewable source and electricity.
