Our research has redesigned the traditional fuel-driven propulsion system to include pure electric and hybrid electric modes.
The on-board electric power system is based on a novel architecture with superior coordination and enhanced stability. The acoustic noise of the vehicle is significantly reduced. The pure electric (whisper) mode offers extreme reduction and optional reshaping of acoustic signatures.
