a Few Kilos, a lot of horsepower: this is the recipe for Audi, BMW, Mercedes and co. design lines of each of the sports versions of your model. But it is no longer enough to Kilos to save. In the sports departments of the manufacturers such as the Audi Sport GmbH, BMW M or Mercedes-AMG, the strong versions of the A6, 3er or A search is also made for the power-class, long after every superfluous gram.
that's Exactly why you avoid the electrification, with additional E-motors and associated batteries. Especially the Latter make progress in the weight saving is immediately lost again. In addition, the range of fast-paced driving style of shrinking exponentially in the only two-digit kilometer range.
In the near future, the engineers of the dynamics of departments, RS, M and AMG must cope, but a electrification strategy. On the one hand, cities driving bans for pure petrol and diesel cars threaten in the inside. On the other hand, the Exhaust emissions regulations are becoming increasingly stringent. The new EU standard, 7 is not, even if the Details are not yet known. And you will definitely be sharper in terms of exhaust gas composition. In both problems, the electrification can help.
What are the problems?anti-Inflammatory factors, however, are not just the Weights. Add to that the cost and lack of space for the entire technology. How challenging the topic is, the current 911. Although Porsche with the Panamera and Cayenne was able to collect a lot of experience with Plug-in hybrids and electric drives, has not been electrified in the last year launched the eighth edition of the sports car icon. 911 series Manager Frank-Steffen Walliser explains: "this is not progress it is because for us, a hybrid only makes sense if the customer can feel in everyday life as well." At the same time he should not get used in the operation. For a relatively small, and technology-filled car like the Porsche 911 also hybrid technology to accommodate, would be a powerful electric motor in the automatic transmission are integrated.
While super sport will be the E wagon-Power for more power and a rather small battery set, to achieve the benefit of RS, M and AMG-models are also acceptable electric ranges. Because the customer can Shot with boller Sport-still whisper quiet in the city center glide. Also, the leads to the balancing act: For Audi, BWM, Mercedes want the battery to trim cells, in principle, more sportiness. Say: you should be able to make a lot of power quickly, instead of with the power for maximum range house keep. It also requires a complex and thus heavy cooling system, because the cells emit more heat.
What is the E supposed to bring engine?The BMW M GmbH has already a clear idea of a hybrid module. Electrically driven rear wheels but not as head of development Dirk Häcker reveals. "The electric drive is currently not so sturdy that I would trust him with over a long time, the rear axle." Instead of as a pure source of power, he sees the E-Motor more in the service of the vehicle dynamics, i.e. when Distributing the driving force to the axles or individual wheels. Hackers suspected, that the hybrid module will include a 4x4 to about 100 kilograms in weight. This is why BMW is currently developing a new platform that aims to combine electrification and driving dynamics, and better – with even more weight savings.
Nevertheless, the question of what this means for the future of models such as the BMW M2 arises. Here is a hybridization of power with the heavier battery also makes little sense as the Audi RS3 or the Mercedes-AMG A 45. Here, the mild hybrid System with start-up generator and a 48-Volt on-Board network are likely to come to the train. However, it will give the Audi RS6, BMW M5 and Mercedes-AMG E 63 in the near future, probably only with the plug-in as a Plug-in Hybrid à la BMW i8.
How many cylinders remain still?should, What did the customer but rather to smuggling, the threat of circumcision to the number of cylinders. Mercedes AMG stands for the V8-Biturbo-engine – rather, stand. The next C 63 will only come with four cylinders and artificially aufgepepptem Sound. On the upcoming SL Mercedes plans an electrically assisted four-cylinder.
Three - and four-cylinder especially for sports car fans, no Lobby, for example, has proven to be the i8. Therefore, Audi, BMW and Mercedes will continue in the future, especially on doubly-charged six-cylinder units, of course, with electric support. Thus, the RS, M and AMG models of the future are castrated, although the number of cylinders evenly, with part 700 and more HP, but stronger.
