I have noticed that the BMW i8 has a unique feature where the electric motor can also function as a generator. Can you explain why this design was chosen and what benefits it provides?
ReplyThe BMW i8's electric motor is designed to also function as a generator because it allows for energy regeneration during braking and deceleration. This helps to extend the range and overall efficiency of the vehicle.
By having the electric motor serve as both a motor and generator, it eliminates the need for a traditional alternator in the vehicle. This reduces weight and complexity, contributing to the i8's impressive performance.
