Insider Pulse
P0, P2 Architecture and 48V-based Batteries
Mobility
Innovation in 48V systems by suppliers continues to boost the easy transition to electrification. H2 2019 witnessed widespread adoption of 48V active anti-roll systems among luxury SUVs. Multiple vehicle launches and future product line of OEMs with 48V systems indicate momentum for P0 and P2 architecture. What’s more, many suppliers are developing 48V based batteries that are optimized for energy recovery and can easily be incorporated in the 48V mild hybrid architecture.
Finally, increasing cost pressure on traditional components on the one hand, and high R&D expenditures to enter a highly competitive alternative powertrain market with initially low sales volumes, on the other hand, force choices by automotive suppliers.
