Men Polestar blir nog först ut!?
Batteriet kommer att placeras i golvet, se bilder nedan, och enligt Henrik Green kommer varje Volvo framöver, som går på ren eldrift, att erbjudas med minst två batteristorlekar. Via Teknikens Värld och AutoExpress
“In purely physical terms, we have to fit the battery in the floor,” Green said, “but CMA gives us pretty good bandwidth. Everything from the full SUV height down to fairly low cars is possible. We’ve designed CMA from the beginning to have plug-in capability.”
The first fully electric CMA product will not be a Volvo, in fact, but the Polestar 2 (Lanseras i mitten av 2019, framgår av denna länk) high-performance saloon, due in the second half of 2019. However, when the electric V40 does arrive, it will be offered with a choice of battery size and range, Green confirmed. “For each electric car, we will typically have at least two different battery sizes on offer,” he told us. “The base variant will be more cost-efficient, but with a slightly limited range, and then there will be a bigger option with a higher price, but more range and more power.”
V40 förväntas alltså bli ren elbil, utöver hybrid och andra driv-linor på den så kallade CMS-plattformen. Men det är tyvärr något oklart när den lanseras.
