MERCEDES LAUNCHES NEW ELECTRIC CAR WITH SOLAR PANELS

January 7, 2022

 * Mercedes-Benz unveils the newest model of its electric fleet.
 * The car will have 117 solar modules on its roof.

German carmaker Mercedes-Benz has launched the latest model of its electric
fleet, Vision EQXX, with 117 solar modules on its roof.

According to the carmaker, the ultra-thin roof panels will feed the battery
system up to 25 km of extra range on long-distance journeys on a single day and
under ideal conditions. The energy generated by the solar cells is stored in a
lithium-iron-phosphate battery and is used to power the climate blower, the
lights, the infotainment system and other ancillaries. In the future, the
carmaker plans to use Mercedes-Benz solar power to charge the high-voltage
system, too.

The company claims that it is the most efficient car it has ever built, with
energy consumption of less than 10kWh per 100 km and a range of more than 1,000
km on a single charge. The car is equipped with a battery pack with almost
100kWh of energy. The carmaker, in a statement, explained that the battery is 50
per cent smaller and weighs 30 per cent less than the already benchmark pack in
EQS to fit into a compact car.

Mercedes developed the vehicle in cooperation with the Fraunhofer Institute for
Solar Energy Systems ISE.
