Arrive more & ugrave; autonomy for the DS 3 Crossback E-Tense. This electric model , which debuted in 2019, has now received a technical update that has allowed increasing the maximum mileage . Motor and battery were not touched. The French brand & egrave; intervened on other aspects of the vehicle with the aim of increasing its efficiency.

We remind you that the DS 3 Crossback E-Tense has the well-known powertrain adopted by other electric models of the vehicle. former PSA Group. So, we have a 100 kW (136 HP) electric motor combined with a 50 kWh battery which can & ograve; be recharged in direct current up to a maximum power of 100 kW. Previously, the manufacturer declared a maximum autonomy according to the WLTP cycle of 320 km.

NEW HEAT PUMP

Now, following a series of technical interventions, the mileage is; increased by about 7% reaching up to 341 km (WLTP). To achieve this improvement, DS & egrave; intervened on the heat pump that & egrave; has been the subject of an evolution with the adoption of a hygrometric sensor to increase its efficiency. The standard heat pump proposed produces heat by compression in order to generate hot air. The energy requirement required for this function is now considerably reduced.

But the changes introduced go beyond just the heat pump. In fact, also the transmission ratio & egrave; been optimized to improve efficiency. Finally, again with the aim of improving the overall efficiency of the vehicle, DS introduced the new class A 17-inch tires developed by Continental in the size 215/60 R17 96H. Specifically, these are Continental EcoContact 6 Q tires which feature a new silica compound to improve rolling resistance and reduce noise emissions.
