Audi currently oversees a process that guarantees g - tron
vehicles have a
low carbon footprint, ensuring it produces enough gas (generated from biogas using electricity from renewable energy) to cover the total
usage of the g - tron fleet.
- A chassis dynamo possessing
lower inertia, higher response, and higher accuracy than the conventional dynamo is adopted; Controlling the motor using a physical model for the
vehicle» s
usage environment makes it possible to evaluate
vehicles with high reproducibility under virtual driving conditions (
low - friction road, uphill, gear ratio change, etc..)
The Army is in the midst of a significant transformation of its fleet of 70,000 nontactical
vehicles (NTVs), including the current deployment of more than 500 hybrids and the acquisition of 4,000
low - speed electric
vehicles at domestic installations to help cut fossil fuel
usage.
