e-SKYACTIV EV

e-SKYACTIV EV

The e-SKYACTIV EV is driven by motor power using the electrical power stored in the high voltage battery. This vehicle is an eco-friendly vehicle which emits no exhaust gas because fuel is not used.

Motor

The motor transmits the motor power to the wheels using the electrical power of the high voltage battery.

Regenerative energy and regenerative braking

The motor functions as a generator to recover energy by charging the high voltage battery (regenerative energy). In the following cases, the braking force of the vehicle can be obtained using the resistance force of the motor generated when energy is recovered (regenerative braking).

  • The accelerator pedal is released.

  • The brake pedal is depressed.

High voltage battery

The high voltage battery is a large-capacity battery and stores the charged power and the electrical power generated by regenerative braking.

Approaching vehicle audible system

The approaching vehicle audible system notifies pedestrians of the vehicle approaching using a warning sound while driving at low speeds.
