I am a newbie at this stuff but lets do a little back-of-the-envelope
on the claims presented:
1000 hp =~ 750 kilowatts peak output.
Lets say 200 mile range is at 33% power or 250kw for 2 hours. That's
500kwh!!!
What kind of battery pack putting out that kind of power would charge
in 10 minutes from 220 and fit in a chassis? Amusing fantasy.
(or does it only have 200 mile range at 10% power / 55mph / 75 kw /
100hp in which case you're still charging 150kwh in 10 minutes)
Has anyone heard of using ultra-capacitors for ultra high
performance. In my uneducated theory an ultra-capacitor setup in
addition to a battery pack could deliver tons of extra juice for short
periods of max acceleration. Top speed with sustained draw would have
to be 100% on the pack. Regen could charge the ultracap.
I have no idea if it is practical or possible to hit the numbers
claimed with known tech.
Anyone? Am I way off?
