Description
MULTI-MOBY is an ambitious proposal aiming at quickly finalizing the results of a cluster of GV and FoF EU projects addressing the development of technology for safe, efficient and affordable urban electric vehicles. A fleet of multi-passenger and multi-purpose commercial vans will be manufactured assuring: • Best-in-class safety for occupants and Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs) protection as required per the M1/N1categories, • Autonomous capabilities by adopting the most on-the-road-experimented sensing and computational platforms, with the addition of low-cost scanning and night vision functionalities, • High efficiency 48V and 100V powertrains adopting the most advanced power semiconductor technologies amongst Si, SiC and GaN, • Robust battery packs based on hybrid cells with specific energy close to 200Wh/kg at pack level, • On-board charger integrating a DCxxV-DC12V converter optimized for the two voltages of interest, • A standardized low cost charging system able to operate DC charging at 48V and 100V, • Advanced Electric Electronic (EE) architecture with implemented secured procedures for remote updates and upgrades of the firmware and predictive maintenance, by applying advanced artificial intelligence (AI) methodologies, • Application of low-cost, flexible, agile and lean manufacturing through a low-investment micro-factory concept, • Competitive price positioning with respect to existing and forthcoming fully electrical urban passenger and commercial vehicles.
