SoC (State of Charge) indicates the charge level of the battery. It expresses how much energy is currently stored in the battery relative to its maximum capacity. Simply put, it shows how full the battery is at a given moment. This indicator is essential for the practical use of batteries, as it informs the user about the amount of energy currently available.
Read MoreVehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology enables the use of energy stored in electric vehicle batteries and its return to the power grid. The V2G technology makes the EV battery available as a kind of mini-storage. Using V2G can bring benefits not only to electric vehicle owners but to society as a whole.
Read MoreSoH (State of Health) indicates the overall technical condition of a battery or its cell. It expresses the ratio between the current capacity and the original rated capacity of a new battery. In other words, SoH reflects the degree of battery wear. This indicator is crucial, for example, when assessing the condition of a battery in a used electric vehicle.
Read MoreCars carrying the eHybrid (e-HYBRID) designation have a plug-in hybrid electric drive, which means they can use a traditional internal combustion engine, an electric motor or a combination of the two. Hybrid eHybrid (e-HYBRID) cars allow driving solely on electric power.
Read MorePower electronics is a very important and integral part of the powertrain unit of every electric vehicle. The power electronics of an electric drive system control the transfer of energy between the main components of electric vehicles, such as the battery, the electric motor, and the charger. The efficiency of a given electric drive is significantly influenced by the architecture of the power electronics.
Read MoreA hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) is a car that can independently run on fossil fuels and electric power. HEV vehicles are typically equipped with only a smaller traction battery and a less powerful electric motor. However, the electric motor’s performance is sufficient for the vehicle to run solely on electric power.
Read MoreV2L technology allows the electric car to provide AC power to external appliances such as lights, laptops, electric scooters, electric saws, grills and refrigerators. In short, when the power grid is unavailable, the user can use his electric car as a mobile source of electricity.
Read MoreThe MCU is a key component of Tesla cars that allows drivers to control all multimedia and convenience features. The MCU is located in the dashboard below the central touchscreen. This display is used to control most of the car’s functions.
Read MoreThe abbreviation BEV stands for pure electric vehicle. This vehicle is powered by an electric motor and uses a battery as its energy source, the capacity of which determines most of its range.
