We all know that some cars on the market today are equipped with systems that use the heat generated by the brakes to generate electricity. In fact, there are other components in the car that can generate electricity, such as suspension systems. According to the report of DigitalTrends, Audi has already made use of the system that uses the car's shock absorber to generate electricity. This system, which is still in the prototype stage, is called eROT. It can work with a 48V power system. Audi believes that this energy recovery suspension system can both provide additional electric power for the vehicle and increase the suspension's adjustability. In the eROT system, Audi uses a lever arm to obtain the force generated by the up and down motion of the suspension system. This force is then introduced into the motor by the transmission and finally converted into electrical energy. Audi introduced that the system could obtain an average of 100-150 watts of energy in Germany's drive test. Thanks to this, the carbon dioxide emitted by the vehicle was reduced by 4.8 g per mile. In mass production models, the power generated by the eROT can be used for on-board electrical appliances, thereby reducing the burden on the engine. Audi also claims that the eROT system has better adjustability than conventional suspension devices. Suspension adjustability is very important for the comfort and control of the vehicle. Good suspension tuning should balance the two aspects of softness and stability. The eROT suspension can independently adjust the shock absorber's compression and rebound rate, making it easier for the carmaker to adjust the suspension. Many analysts are optimistic about the 48V power system that works with eROT. In the next few years, more and more electric appliances will be installed in automobiles. The storage of renewable energy power equipment is undoubtedly conducive to environmental protection. Audi has not yet determined the mass production plan for the eROT system. However, in 2017 Audi, we will see a mild hybrid model equipped with a 48V power system.
