The new EHW5 lithium-ion battery has been engineered to generate higher output despite a reduced size and weight.
The battery is 17 per cent lighter and 7 per cent smaller than conventional products but delivers more capacity and higher output as well as durability and safety.
This has allowed the battery module on each vehicle to be reduced by 20 per cent in size with a 15 per cent weight reduction.
The Blue Energy battery efficiently stores regenerative energy, which is collected during deceleration and ensures smooth and powerful acceleration performance by assisting the engine and the electric motors.
With the EHW5, Blue Energy has achieved a high battery quality that can meet the high power and exothermic performance requirements unique to sports cars.
Established in 2009 by GS Yuasa and Honda, Blue Energy is focussed on developing lithium-ion batteries for electric and hybrid vehicles.
