Electric Vehicle (EV) Battery Assembly and Auxiliary Battery
The iQ EV features a high voltage Electric Vehicle (EV) battery assembly that contains sealed
Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery cells.
EV Battery Assembly
•
The EV battery assembly is enclosed in a case and is rigidly mounted under the floor. The case is
isolated from high voltage.
•
The EV battery assembly consists of 150 low voltage (3.7 Volt) Li-ion battery cells connected in
series-parallel to produce approximately 277.5 Volts. Each Li-ion battery cell is non-spillable and
sealed in a case.
•
The electrolyte used in the Li-ion battery cells is a flammable organic electrolyte. The electrolyte
is absorbed into the battery cell separator and will not normally leak, even in a collision.
