In this book, we explore the technologies from an OEM and supplier perspective of the new production vehicle models released

32、for the 2016 model year and the concept cars that point toward the future. This 2016 Passenger Car and 2015 Concept Car Yearbook continues the series of books that provide snapshots of the direction of the automotive industry. Each year, the editors of Automotive Engineering publish many articles fo

33、cused on the technology and engineering innovations of new cars. These articles have been collected into this volume as a yearbook. In this singular publication, readers have a complete overview of the key advances that took place over the course of one model year. Each car manufacturer has its own

34、chapter in which its new models are explored in depth. With each new annual edition of the Yearbook series, trends and innovations are presented that make the automobile industry fascinating to the engineer and customer.2016 Passenger Car Yearbook 2 | 2016 Passenger Car and 2015 Concept Car Yearbook

35、 AUDI | A3 SPORTBACK Audi A3 Sportback e-tron swells VWs plug-in hybrid choices saw an average of about 5.9 L/100 km, which is the reality of the concept. It can be argued, of course, that under selectable electric power alone, its range of 50 km (31 mi) makes it a ZEV for that distance. And some of

36、 that range can be “stored” for use in various journey phases through urban areas. The cars total range is 900 km (560 mi). Purely from a driving aspect, the solution is very satisfactory in terms of performance (0-100 km/h in 7.6 s, top speed of 222 km/h) and, generally, regarding ride and handling

37、, although the 125-kg (275-lb) weight of its 8.8-kWh, eight-module, 96-cell lithium ion battery positioned under the floor beneath the rear bench seat makes itself felt when the car is driven quickly over winding roads. The battery sits in an aluminum housing. Battery temperature is controlled via a

38、 liquid cooling system with its own low temperature circuit. Power electronics are positioned under the hood. The A3 Sportback e-trons disc-shaped electric motor is integrated between the flywheel and a bespoke designed six-speed e-S tronic (dual-clutch) transmission. “For Audi, the A3 Sportback e-t

39、ron plug-in hybrid marks another important step towards sustainable individual mobility, ” said Audi Head of Sales, Wayne Griffiths. But it is undeniably a small step, however worthy it may be. The car gets its auto show debut in Detroit at the 2015 North American International Auto Show. Persuading

40、 buyers that such technology meets their requirements at the right price remains a global challenge for the auto industrys sales and marketing expertise, and is a constant reminder that public mindsets are tough to change, no matter how sensible, sophisticated, and sustaining are the design and engi

41、neering programs supporting a solution. Part of the persuasion campaign includes tax benefits and outright State-backed financial support. For example, in the UK, an A3 Sportback e-tron buyer gets a 5000 off-set from the government. In keeping with the Volkswagen Groups policy of technology sharing,

42、 the Audi plug-in solution, now starting to be delivered to European customers, is very close to that in the Golf GTE (see http:/articles.sae.org/13535/). The hybrid system comprises a 1.4-L TFSI 110-kW (148-hp) gasoline engine delivering 250 Nm (184 lbft) maximum torque, and a 75-kW electric motor

43、having 330-Nm (243-lbft) torque capability. Its official combined fuel consumption in accordance with the NEDC standard for plug-in hybrid vehicles is 1.5 L/100 km with CO2 emissions of 35 g/km. But testing in Europe by this Automotive Engineering editor over a wide mix of roads, Audis new A3 Sportb

The car comes standard with a relatively high specification. Externally, the A3 Sportback e-tron di

45、ffers little from a regular Sportback. The battery can be fully charged in some 2.5 h via a 3.6-kW charger. Energy recovery is achieved during braking. The vacuum brake servo has an additional supply connection served by an electric vacuum pump. Low to moderate braking forces can be achieved dependi

46、ng on the driving mode selected, via the electric motor as it operates as an alternator, putting expended energy back into the battery. The battery has an 8-year life guarantee. All relevant components within the high-voltage network of the car have no conductive connections to other parts of the ve

47、hicle, claims Audi. In a crash situation sufficiently serious to initiate belt tensioning and airbag deployment, the high-voltage network is instantly disconnected from the power supply. The A3 Sportback e-trons four-ring grille badge slides to reveal the charger socket. The conventional A3s rev cou

48、nter is replaced by a “powermeter” to display overall system power and there is a battery status display. Audi states that it is planning many online services for its electrified cars, providing various activating processes including charging processes. Stuart Birch Instrument details of the A3 Spor
