The engine is also characterized by a variable geometry turbocharger and is homologated for the Euro 6.4 standard.
The permanent magnet synchronous electric motor, on the other hand, develops a peak power of 21kW (28hp) and a maximum torque of 55Nm. This unit moves the car at low speeds, when maneuvering or when slowing down e assists the petrol engine when starting. During deceleration, it acts as a battery charging generatorwhile reducing brake wear. In addition, under hard acceleration, the electric motor delivers an additional 9 kW (approx. 12 hp).
A starter motor belt-driven, powered at 48V, allows you to start the petrol engine quickly and reactively. The hybrid drive completes with the new ë-DCS6 electrified gearbox, 6-speed dual clutch, with no torque interruption, also specifically designed for hybrid technology. Gear steps are shorter and the ride is more comfortable. the electric motor, the inverter and the controller are integrated to optimize the space under the bonnet.
A 48V Li-ion battery with an available capacity of 432Wh it is installed under the left front seat, so as not to affect the space in the boot or passenger compartment. Also, thanks to a voltage converterpart of the electricity produced by the 48V electric motor is transformed into 12V to power the car’s equipment, thus providing two separate electrical networks.
