Result description
A new open-protocol for battery pack interchangeability has been developed. This will allow the user to include the batteries (highest cost in an EV) from the range and/or manufacturer best fitting his needs with limited or no effort, providing deep vehicle configurability.
A newly developed hardware and software platform will enable the vehicle to be equipped with energy packs that have different characteristics. These packs are compatible and easily interchangeable to suit desired features and performance.
Impossible?
Not if you create (as we did) an open-protocol which any vendor and company can adopt, so that they can build different types of batteries which are consistent with our revolutionary idea.
This idea is that of an innovative battery system with a standard interface between the energy pack and the main electronic control units on the vehicle: instead of building WEEVIL around its battery pack, we decided to create different battery packs that match the new vehicle.
