electrification and VW? Since the ID of the most.-Product family, with the group leaders, Herbert Diess, German car manufacturers to the promised Stromer-country to lead. But there are in Wolfsburg, a life beyond the BEV models and is a Plug-in Hybrid: in this year Alone, VW wants to bring in addition to the two Passat GTE model variants (estate and sedan) six more PHEV vehicles on the market, including the Golf Hybrid (probably 150 kW / 204 HP) and the stronger of the Golf GTE with 180 kW / 244 HP.
GTE versions for: Golf, Passat, Arteon, Tiguan
in addition, Arteon, and the Arteon Shooting Brake will be electrified. Well possible that these two models are also offered in various performance levels. In the case of the SUVs, the Touareg R PHEV to come and, new Tiguan PHEV (sold in China as the Tiguan L 430 PHEVs). Diesel or Plug-In Hybrid – which is better?

The rate of Incorporation in the case of the PHEVs in the Passat, which has increased in Germany in a year from three to 15 percent, make the VW-strategists courage that the Plug-enforce in-Hybrid in the other series. Since the WLTP-range of the PHEV module in the Passat Variant GTE with 54 miles on the VW customers with an average travelled distance of approximately 42 kilometres.
hybrid models are the most powerful versions of the brand
in addition, to mark the GTE models-such as the Touareg Hybrid R with 340 kW / 462 PS in the future, the power peak of the series. A welcome side-effect of the hybrid offensive, the impact on the fleet fuel consumption. “We anyway assume that the fleet mix of the group’s CO2 emissions targets. All of the models, particularly BEVs and PHEVs,“ explains Dr. Kai Philipp, head of project control PHEV development at VW. Volkswagen, the new VW Tiguan will have as a PHEV to be
An advantage of the VW-solution the compact design of the parallel hybrid module (electric motor, separating clutch and dual-clutch transmission in a housing) and the fact that this is suitable for the Longitudinal and transverse installation. However, the MQB modular system the PHEV uses penetration of the VW model range, a clear border. “The PHEV technology requires a minimum amount of space, therefore, the Gulf is the lower limit,” says Kai Philipp unmistakably clear. So all the resolve of a Polo or T – Cross PHEV variant dream, this idea must. 1,6 litres fuel consumption – really?

granted, the VW-strategist a cancellation. The reasons are many and varied. The cost for the exhaust treatment of the TDI engines would add with those for the Plug-in hybrid technology and thus, these vehicles are very expensive to make. In addition, China is not a diesel market and hence the economies of scale failed to materialize, which could save the business model. A lot of gas, little electricity: a Plug-In Hybrid make sense?

Due to the compact construction, are also expected in the near future no large range jumps in the purely electric driving mode. Larger batteries are not in it, so the extra kilometres on the density only through improvements to the energy of the battery better battery cells, the efficiency of electric motors and an improvement in the battery management software. Just in terms of the energy density, which has been a big lever for more coverage, flattens the optimization curve slowly. press-inform / VW, The VW Golf GTE draws the same power as standard with the GTI
the Transition to the pure electric car
Ultimately, the PHEV technology, but also the task of the customer to fully electric mobility lead. “A key focus in the development of electric vehicles, the optimization of the electric driving experience,” says Kai Philipp. The inductive Load is considered in the case of the PHEV models, decision-makers in this context of the VW as a handling relief, but the lack of space in the MQB cars to install an inductive charging option, also makes this suggestion a dash through the bill.
