ENTRY TO ELECTRIFIC­ATION

-

By 2025, Bosch predicts that more than 15 million vehicles worldwide will run 48-volt mild-hybrid systems. What do they do? Well, this setup won’t move your car but will rather support and assist the engine instead, thus reducing emissions, improving fuel efficiency and, in some cases, boosting performanc­e. With emission regulation­s becoming ever stricter, manufactur­ers such as Jaguar, Volvo, and even Maserati have now adopted this form of electrific­ation. It serves as a stepping stone towards plug-in hybrid systems and eventually fully electric vehicles.
