2011-07-19: Techical Article: Electric Mobility Makes Great Strides - Research project achieved international success

626.6 kilometers under real conditions on one battery charge

Today, there are numerous research projects that focus on topics related to electric mobility. One aspect that is still considered a critical issue is the limited driving range of electric vehicles. The so-called “Schluckspecht” project holds special interest here; in the Solar Challenge 2010 in South Africa, a vehicle by this name covered 626.6 km – the longest distance an electric car has ever driven on a single battery charge in real traffic on public roads. This milestone was enabled by state-of-the-art drivetrain technologies and power electronics paired with highly professional implementation of the control and networking systems.
