Extended motor generator Mahle on display at IAA Mobility Munich 2025
Mahle created an estimated autonomy autonomy extender of 1350 km per load – more than three times higher than the average autonomy of 400 km from the European Union (EU) electric vehicles in 2024.
The German manufacturer of components Mahle presented, at the IAA Mobility Munich 2025 exhibition, on the last weekend, a small High efficiency multicombly generator engine.
According to the company, this autonomy extender is ready to provide hybrid conduction up to 1350 km – About the generality of current electric vehicles.
These batteries will then allow cost, weight and material savings, creating an attractive selection of vehicles of new efficient and economic energies, with Greater global autonomysimple and flexible refueling options and local driving with zero emissions.
The company’s CEO, Arnd FranzIt regrets that Europe is late compared to major global markets, such as China and the US, pointing out that electric vehicles with extended autonomy are the future of the automotive market.
In his speech at the IAA Mobility press conference, Franz said that political complications are preventing Europe from adopting broad -autonomy electric vehicles as an option of emissions. The purpose of the European Union to 2035 to reduce the CO2 emissions of cars by 100%.
“Mahle is doing her homework and working on the decarbonization of road traffic in all areas of technology,” said Franz.
1350 km per load
The new generator is designed to operate with an efficiency of greater than 97%, producing a Continuous power of 85 kilowatts to charge the onboard battery of the electric vehicle.
As details A, the part of the small turbocharged engine of the equation is also highly efficient, with the sistema Jet Ignition Mahle to work with a impressive efficiency of 42%far greater than 30% of ICE cited by the American Automobile Association and the US Department of Energy.
The jet ignition replaces the common ignition candle with a small pre-barram that releases fast heat jets through a series of nozzles, providing a fast and stable combustion.
Although total autonomy ultimately depends on the vehicle with battery to which the autonomy extender is coupled, the Autonomy estimated by Mahle of 1350 km per load It is more than three times higher than the average autonomy of 400 km of EU electric vehicles by 2024.
It is expected that small and efficient autonomy extensor may reduce the anxiety of autonomy, which is currently an obstacle in the electric world.
According to New Atlas, this invention of Mahle is ready to be produced in series.
