Case Study for Bidding
Time: March 2024
Supplier: MAHLE Powertrain (Germany)
Buyer: Stellantis (Netherlands/Global)
Product: 40 kW free-piston linear generators for next-generation EV range extender platforms
Quantity: 60,000 units
Contract Value: USD 312 million
Delivery Timeline: July 2026
Case Study for End Using
End User: Toyota Motor Corporation (Japan)
Application: Integrated into prototype EVs as ultra-efficient, hydrogen-compatible range extenders.
Installation Location
Packaged as a compact power module near the vehicle's rear subframe.
Coupled directly into the high-voltage battery system via onboard power electronics.
Enclosed in acoustically damped housings for noise and vibration control.
Purpose
Provides lightweight, fuel-flexible power generation for extended EV range.
Enables precise piston motion control for superior fuel efficiency.
Reduces emissions compared to conventional micro-ICE generators.
Effect
Improved overall EV range by 52% using hydrogen-assisted operation.
Achieved up to 42% brake thermal efficiency (BTE) in real-world cycles.
Reduced mass and packaging volume by 30% compared to traditional genset range extenders.
Alternative Devices
Rotary range extenders (micro-gasoline engines) are common but cannot match FPLGs' efficiency, fuel versatility, or reduced mechanical complexity.
Therefore, Free-Piston Linear Generators remain essential for high-efficiency hybrid power systems, EV range extension, and compact energy generation applications.
