Summary

In recent years, high investments have been made in the development of platforms for battery electric vehicles (BEVs). Despite these efforts, the sales figures for BEVs are stagnating in some relevant markets or are not growing at the rate required to meet the ambitious legislative targets. According to surveys and analyses, this is due to continued high prices and, in some cases, range anxiety. And this is even though the autonomy of vehicles has significantly increased. The simultaneous tightening of CO2 fleet limits is putting additional pressure on the automotive industry. A serial hybrid is a sensible way of reducing powertrain and therefore vehicle costs, while at the same time increasing autonomy and therefore customer acceptance. Finally, it makes a significant contribution to the faster defossilization of the transport sector, especially if the range extender (Rex) is also prepared for regenerative or CO2-neutral fuels.
