This is a range extender and fuel saver basing on altering dynamics of load applied to engine and EV motor via throttle control. No problems with warranty – undetectable by dealer. It is easy to install, as it uses factory plugs. It delivers the following extensions to standard HYbrid4 car:
Fuel savings oscillate around 1l/100 km. ZEV range is about 15% better. How does it work? Originally, there is no glide mode (N-mode on demand). Glide mode is when your car does not accelerate nor decelerate with Regen – just roll, like having no gear applied. As any energy conversion (from kinetic to electric and back) suffers from 80% or so efficiency, We have added gliding mode (when you release acc pedal, but keep it a bit pressed – easy to learn) and the result is a huge range increase in pure EV mode (ZEV mode) – as observed in all other EV and PHEV cars.
No simple “charge” button to top up the battery. We have added automatic load positioning at Sport Mode, so switching to sport mode will work more or less like “charge battery” button – quickly load the battery till full.
An electric car without a Range Extender drains or charges the battery, but it is almost impossible to coast with zero energy usage. Since battery efficiency and motor efficiency do not reach 100%, continuous energy flows cause thermal loss of energy. Range Extender improves the car’s behavior, and thanks to about 20% lower energy flow lowers the temperature of the battery and extends its life!
