Aura Hybrid using Cobasys Energy Storage Solutions
GM
needed to find an energy storage system and a source
to help them meet their requirements for a successful
product launch on their production hybrid vehicle.
They selected Cobasys and the NiMHax battery system
for their Saturn Vue Green Line Hybrid SUV.
Cobasys was able to show Saturn that using our patented
Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) technology for energy storage
systems was the best, most reliable and safe technology
available.
The modular NiMHax energy storage system developed
by Cobasys was chosen and tailored to a 36-Volt energy
system for the Saturn Vue Hybrid. The NiMHax system
offered GM a battery package with embedded electronics
and energy management controls included in one small,
lightweight package that could communicate with their
Belt Alternator Starter (BAS) system.
The Cobasys NiMHax energy storage system offered GM
a "plug and play" concept and solution. By
providing system's design, prototyping, manufacturing,
testing, validation, product service and support, Cobasys
allowed Saturn to accelerate development and rapidly
integrate the various systems to meet their needs.

The
GM 2007 Saturn Aura Green Line Hybrid mid-size sedan
has been chosen as "Car of the Year" and is
the company's first entry into the hybrid sedan vehicle
marketplace. GM again chose Cobasys and our NiMHax energy
storage system to support this program. The NiMHax system
incorporates Nickel Metal Hydride (NIMH) technology.
The NiMHax energy storage system developed by Cobasys
for all Saturn Green Line hybrid vehicles uses a 36-Volt
high-powered advanced battery system and electronics
in a small, lightweight package.
The Aura Green Line combines sophisticated controls
and a unique electric motor / generator mated to Saturn's
2.4L Ecotec four-cylinder engine and the Cobasys NiMHax
battery system. This hybrid model delivers a 25% fuel
economy improvement over the base Aura XE model.
The Saturn Aura hybrid system provides: an electric
power assist during acceleration; increased fuel economy
through engine shutoff at idle; fuel cutoff during deceleration;
and the capability to capture electrical energy through
regenerative braking.
Cobasys has positioned itself to provide: application
and product development; systems design; prototyping;
manufacturing; testing; validation; product service;
and support.
