 Overview

With the G20 PHEV the already familiar Generation 4.0 high-voltage battery unit with the designation SP41 is used. The lithium-ion battery has the same basic design as the Generation 3.0 SP06 high- voltage battery unit. The same can be found in the G12 PHEV and also in the G30 PHEV. The

 General information

Electronic control devices are installed in the vehicle. Electronic control units process data they receive from vehicle sensors, self-generate or exchange with each other. Some control units are necessary for the vehicle to function safely or provide assistance during driving, for instance driver
