Mercedes E Class B-Cell Plus Hybrid 2014
Taking advantage of the body of the new Class B, the brand presents a extended range electric prototype: Travel 100 miles on electricity and other 500 (600 total) using the auxiliary gasoline engine that, broadly speaking, functions as a generator and produce electricity to go on. Mercedes has announced that this proposal goes a definitive series model will go on sale in 2014.The new mechanical space and just remove the E-Cell Plus preserves the conventional five-seater. In front, under the hood, will the two engines: the electric and gasoline. Behind, under the trunk, are the batteries and fuel tank.Move only on electricity or the generator connected, the benefits are the same: 150 km / h speed (self) and an acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in 11 seconds. The electric motor provides 95 hp constant, with peaks of 136 hp, and the generator yields about 70 hp. This is a propeller 1.0 turbo three-cylinder gasoline.Although lack of depth details of the mechanical operation, the first information report that if the batteries are sufficiently charged, the car will move with electricity and zero emissions, ideal for city. When the batteries are depleted, the auxiliary motor is switched on automatically, allowing travel deal. But it works differently depending on the speed. Up to 60 km / h, as a generator and provides power to keep going. Above 60 km / h, is added to the two moving electric car, like a hybrid. The latter mode is intended primarily for road and highway and implies higher consumption. Mercedes cites an average emission of 32 g / km of CO2, which equates to spending less than two liters, but that particular driving situation. The Ampera also extended-range electric, equips a 1.4 petrol and consume about 5.5 liters per roll on highway 100 km sustained with low batteries.
