[EVDL] VW is claiming new EVs will use 48-volt systems

Does anyone have any thoughts on VW using 48-volt systems in planned EVs? Here's an article that claims that number (http://www.autoblog.com/2016/02/05/volkswagen-golf-eighth-generation-information/#slide-endcap), and I've seen others that repeat it. This seems a very low voltage for a

Re: [EVDL] VW is claiming new EVs will use 48-volt systems

I think they are changing the 12V system to 48V. There are so many relatively high power systems running from the 12V system that current is starting to be an issue. Mike On February 6, 2016 8:18:03 PM MST, Paul Wujek via EV wrote: >Does anyone have any thoughts on VW

Re: [EVDL] VW is claiming new EVs will use 48-volt systems

48 volts does indeed seem low for a modern EV, particularly one that weighs more than 3,000 pounds and is expected to go more than 60 MPH. I had a 48vdc (nominal) Citicar (about 1350 pounds empty) a few years back. It would struggle to go over 35 MPH. With a 450 amp controller, there is about

The Ultra Van is a unique motor home. Powered by a Corvair engine and trans axle, it was designed by David Peterson (a professional aircraft designer) in the early sixties. These units were produced in limited quantities by Ultra, Inc. of Hutchinson, Kansas until June of 1970. As a true

Re: [EVDL] VW is claiming new EVs will use 48-volt systems

Indeed seems like a low voltage, it is however all about current. Clearly with a lower voltage they would have to draw significantly more amps. That said if they are boosting the voltage at the battery to AC or DC and to a much higher voltage it becomes moot although the battery pack and the
