The innovative EV technologies of the Luxgen7 MPV EV+ includes the power management and transformation center, PEU (power electronic unit), which integrates the induction motor, charger, battery management system, and the ability to convert kinetic energy into electricity via a regenerative braking system.
The high performance lithium-ion battery pack, which provides a high endurance power supply for the entire vehicle through its modularized design, and could discharge excess electricity back into the power grid to balance electricity utilization during peak and off-peak times. The traction induction motor with its maximum power output of 180kW (approx. 240hp), offers Luxgen7MPV EV+ unprecedented driving enjoyment.
In addition to its impressive power performance, the energy efficiency of the Luxgen7MPV EV+ is outstanding with an energy conversion rate at up to 80%. The Luxgen7MPV EV+ strikes an amazing EER performance which is 1.7 times higher than a hybrid and diesel vehicle, and 2 times higher than a gasoline-powered vehicle.[wzslider height=”400″ lightbox=”true”]
