Volvo's new concept car

Battery technology for electric vehicles is limited to recent growth, they usually use one of the biggest obstacles are. Although it is apparent that a good solution for electric cars, a Volvo for a number of investigations - the internal combustion engine, the hybrid electric vehicles, which will increase the scope of their activities is. Swedish Energy Agency and the European Union plans to live in three different internal combustion engine, electric / internal is tested.

Two Volvo C30, V60 Volvo, and the third is based on hybrid and plug the power setting - in a Volvo, he said "1,000 kilometers (621 miles) the vehicle is a vehicle to promote a range of three concepts.

Supply C30, Volvo's growth:
Vision, three 60-cylinder (45 kW) internal combustion engine of floor products, watches, electronics, power 40 kW with the C30 engine, the bus 111 (82 KB W.) to be installed to connect , a first generator of electric motors, batteries, reducing the internal combustion drive - engine capacity and 40 - liter tank can choose to receive room. The car is only 110 kilometers (68 miles) apart.

Volvo C30 is in parallel:
The most powerful 190 turbo engine (142 kW), three cylinders - C30 HP power back first, with a view of the engine, often with six-speed automatic transmission driving the rear wheels when driving in rural areas. 40 kW generator to recharge the battery unit 111 may be the only HP (82 kW) is a concept of an internal combustion engine 300 HP (224 kW) and a speed of 000-100 km / HR is consolidated. (62 miles) of electric car in less than six seconds, the keyboard 75 kilometers (47 miles).

Volvo V60 continues in parallel:

Driver package is installed in the lid, 111 (80 kW) engine power, three-cylinder - turbo engine and accessories, petrol, 190 (140 kW) and HP two-speed automatic transmission, power transmission and generators for internal combustion front as battery production engine with 40 kW 50 KM / H (31 miles) with a wheeled vehicle speed will only increase. Internal combustion engine to charge batteries, less weight to historical levels. Rear battery under load at 50 range with 45 liter is slightly larger than the other km (31 mi).
