Does a 48V Mild Hybrid Need Charging?
1 Answers
48V mild hybrid vehicles do require charging. Here are the relevant details: Introduction to Hybrid Systems: When the vehicle does not require high power output from the engine, part of the engine's power is used to generate electricity and store it in the battery. Additionally, the kinetic energy reduced during vehicle deceleration and braking is also converted into electrical energy and stored in the battery by the system. Reasons for Hybrid Charging: While the engine can indeed charge automatically when using fuel, the fuel cost consumed by engine-guided charging is higher than that of direct charging to full capacity. Moreover, the charging time is far from sufficient. Therefore, regular supplementary charging of this power supply battery is necessary to ensure the normal operation of the electric power. As a result, hybrid vehicles typically offer consumers an additional charging option.
