The
global report on 42-volt technology: 2003 edition
|
| The
change to a 42-volt power system has been on the agenda since the
late 1990s. Key to the development of the system was the realisation
that existing 12-volt/14.2-volt (2W) vehicle power systems would no
longer be adequate to deal with the requirements of forthcoming drive-by-wire
technologies (including any moves towards automatic vehicle guidance
systems, the so-called Intelligent Highway), telematics terminals
and on-board multimedia packages.
The systems are likely to follow established industry patterns, being deployed initially in high-series cars and gradually cascading down to smaller vehicles. Early adopters are expected to include Cadillac, Jaguar, Mercedes-Benz and Volvo—all of whom have a vested interest in promoting radical chassis engineering/mechatronic developments. |
