Batteries are crucial components of electric vehicles – not least because they significantly influence the residual value. Original Equipment Manufacturers and suppliers are therefore keen to understand the details of how battery cells and systems age and the impact that driving behavior and handling have on their service life. For this purpose, Porsche Engineering is developing a digital twin of a high-voltage battery. More information: https://lnkd.in/e8skdPDN __ Macan Turbo (WLTP): Electrical consumption combined: 20.7 – 18.8 kWh/100 km; CO₂ emissions combined: 0 g/km; CO₂ class: A; Status 06/2024
