BMW Wants to Charge Its Electric Vehicles with Kasiss

Car companies around the world continue their moves for electric vehicles. Germany based manufacturer at BMW one of the highlights. New information reveals that the giant brand has very interesting plans in this regard.

A patent application, first noticed by CarBuzz and later spotted by The Verge, is a patent application that we often see on the roads to charge BMW’s electric vehicles. from the bumps He showed he wanted to take advantage of it. According to the application, the company plans to do this with a special system.

A new suspension system is intended to be able to charge the car as the wheel moves up and down.

Made in Germany in 2021; however, according to the translation of the application that has just appeared, the company with suspension design it wants to supply energy to the batteries of its electric vehicles, which we all encounter on the roads. According to the document, the energy normally generated by the up and down movement of the wheel is consumed as heat energy. However, the system proposed in the patent uses a small amount of energy to capture the energy during this process. generator contains.

Accordingly, the generator is activated after the wheel of the passing vehicle moves up and can charge the electric car or the battery. The company will use this system in the future. like i7 It is estimated that it can be used in larger and luxury premium vehicles.

BMW did not make any statements about whether this system will enter production. However, automobile companies are constantly making such different patent applications; but we must add that not all of them have materialized. So whether BMW will definitely make such a move or not? not clear for now.

Companies are trying all kinds of ways to increase the efficiency of their electric cars

Using kasiss for such purposes is not a new idea. Another auto giant Audi In 2016, he stated that he wanted to convert the kinetic energy from the bumps on the roads into electrical energy and announced his project called ‘eROT’. However, this system from Audi was never produced. It is also unknown whether the company is currently working on this issue. In addition, let’s add that the US-based Giga Performance is working on such a system for electric vehicles.

These moves by BMW and other brands are clear proof that electric car manufacturers are trying every possible way to improve the efficiency of their vehicles. We will see how effective such interesting systems will be in the coming years.
