Sentences with phrase «charged by the combustion»

When the vehicle is driven in E-Charge mode, the high - voltage battery is charged by the combustion engine.

Not exact matches

Perfect charging of the combustion chambers is ensured by large intake and exhaust valves, of which there are four per cylinder.

In the e-charge mode, the internal combustion engine charges the battery by load point shifting, while satisfying rational energy management criteria.

This increased output is balanced by the combustion engine charging the battery more intensively.

The turbos are aided by a new and additional water - cooling system which sprays water into the charge - air cooler — this ensures air entering the combustion chambers is at an optimal temperature, even when the car is being driven hard.

While the batteries of the S 400 HYBRID and S 300 BlueTEC HYBRID as autonomous hybrids are charged during braking or coasting or by the combustion engine, the new high - voltage lithium - ion battery of the S 500 PLUG - IN HYBRID has ten times the energy content and offers the option of being recharged from an external source with a charging socket located on the right side of the rear bumper.

The key benefit of this sophisticated, on - demand control of the combustion air supply by means of two turbochargers is the improved cylinder charging and, consequently, a high torque even at low revs.

The new system lowers the charged air volume between the compressor and intake, improving performance by maintaining more even temperatures en route to combustion.

For recharging the battery while driving, brake recuperation is used on one hand, but as with the Porsche 918 Spyder, also by the means of the internal combustion engine, so that the battery charge never falls below a certain threshold value.

By injecting fuel directly into the cylinder under high pressure using the Kia GDI system, the intake charge is cooled and combustion behavior is improved.

By optimizing the combustion systems with regard to the charge movement in the combustion chamber as well as the geometry of the combustion chamber, the mixture formation can be further improved.

I can't say I disagree, but before this step we need to phase out internal combustion engines by increasing efficacy of electric powered vehicles (by reducing charging time mainly) and bringing in of hydrogen powered machines.

Depending on the electricity source of the local grid, even the most efficient electric car could be charged by coal or natural gas, or by hydropower (no combustion emissions, but linked to increased methane emissions), or nuclear energy (which might qualify as clean or low - carbon energy, but which also has its own environmental bugaboos and massive costs to consider)
