Overview
Hybrid system
1. Petrol engine
2. Electric motor
3. 6-speed or 7-speed electric dual-clutch
automatic gearbox (e-DCS6/7)
4. 48 V traction battery
5. 12 V accessory battery
6. DC/DC converter
7. Belt starter
The 48 V hybrid technology requires no
connection to charge the traction battery.
The Hybrid system does not operate
continuously, but is activated according to
the state of the vehicle, the state of charge
of the traction battery, the thermal comfort of
the passenger compartment (switching on
the heating or air conditioning), the driving
conditions (acceleration, deceleration, braking,
engine start-up) and the road conditions (uphill,
downhill):
– The vehicle always starts with the petrol
engine to ensure the e󰀩ciency of the catalytic
converter and the availability of the brake assist.
– In normal driving, the petrol engine and
electric motor work together or separately to
optimise fuel consumption and electrical energy
or to charge the traction battery.
– During the acceleration phases, the electric
motor provides an additional boost to reach
the torque needed as fast as possible and to
improve the acceleration at low speed.
– During the deceleration phases, the electric
motor charges the traction battery, using the
inertia of the vehicle.
– The driving in all-electric is possible for parking
manoeuvring, for 20 mph (30 km/h) speed zones
in city, on urban and country roads with smooth
driving and on motorways in slight deceleration
or downhill.
The electric motor is integrated into the
automatic gearbox.
The DC/DC converter provides the link between
the 12 V accessory power supply and the 48 V
traction power supply.
The belt starter restarts the petrol engine after
driving in all-electric.
Rechargeable hybrid
system
1. Petrol engine
2. Electric motor
3. Traction battery
4. 12 V accessories batteries
5. 7-speed or 8-speed electric automatic
gearbox (e-DCS7 or e-EAT8)
6. Charging ap
7. Fuel ller ap
8. Driving mode selector
9. Domestic charging cable
The rechargeable hybrid technology combines
two sources of energy: that of the petrol engine
and that of the electric motor, which drive the
front wheels (traction).
The engine and the motor can operate
alternately or simultaneously, according to the
driving mode selected and the driving conditions.

7
Overview
The electric power alone provides the mobility
of the vehicle in Electric mode, and in Hybrid
mode in case of moderate demand. It assists the
petrol engine during starting and acceleration
phases.
The electric power is supplied by a rechargeable
traction battery.
Electric drive system
1. Charging connectors
2. Traction battery
3. Accessory battery
4. Heat pump
5. On-board charger
6. Electric motor
7. Charging cable
The charging connectors 1enable 3 types of
charging:
– Domestic charging in mode 2 using a
domestic socket and associated charging cable
7.
– Accelerated charging in mode 3 using an
accelerated charging unit (Wallbox).
– Superfast charging in mode 4 using a fast
public charger.
The 400 V traction battery 2uses Lithium-Ion
technology. It stores and supplies the energy
required for the operation of the electric motor,
air conditioning and heating. Its charge level is
represented by an indicator and a reserve power
warning lamp on the instrument panel.
The 12 V accessory battery 3powers the
vehicle’s conventional electrical system. It is
recharged automatically by the traction battery
via the on-board charger.
The heat pump 4provides passenger
compartment heating and regulates traction
battery and on-board charger cooling.
The on-board charger 5manages the domestic
charging (mode 2) and accelerated charging
(mode 3) of the traction battery as well as the
recharging of the 12 V accessory battery.
The electric motor 6provides propulsion in
accordance with the selected driving mode and
driving conditions. It recovers energy during
vehicle braking and deceleration phases.
