The Mild Hybrid Advanced system improves the engine performance. The vehicle has more acceleration torque available while consuming less fuel.

Secondary "48 V" battery

The Mild Hybrid Advanced vehicle is equipped with a "48 Volt" secondary battery Secondary 48 V battery.

Located under the floor, this battery stores the energy recovered during deceleration phases. This energy is used by the Mild Hybrid Advanced system to provide additional torque to the combustion engine.

"48 V" electrical circuit

The "48 volt" electrical circuit is denoted by yellow cables and parts bearing the 1_ALL_695_1_pictogramme.png symbol.

The A symbol identifies the electrical elements in your vehicle which may present safety risks.

warning

The secondary battery does not require any maintenance. You should not open it or add any fluid.

Risk of electric shock.

Energy flow

(vehicles fitted with a secondary "48 V" battery)

Different energy flows are shown on the instrument panel (graphic B or C).

These are energy flows between:

  • 1: the combustion engine;
  • 2 : the wheels;
  • 3: the secondary "48 V" battery.

Flow D "Energy production"

The combustion engine will recharge the secondary "48 V" battery.

Flow E "Combustion engine traction"

The combustion engine is used to move the vehicle.

Flow F "Regenerative braking"

The flow F goes from the wheels to the secondary "48 V" battery.
