We quiz Mercedes' chief tech officer Markus Schäfer on autonomy, solid state batteries and how the AMG One and EQXX can apply to road cars ⚡️🔌🔋
Autonomy, battery tech and the AMG OneMercedes-Benz is still at the forefront of technological innovation and, with cars like the AMG One and EQXX drawing so much attention, it shows that Merc is still spending tonnes on research and development.
‘It presented us with a huge technical challenge, because exposing a vehicle to urban traffic is probably one of the most complicated problems that mankind has ever, ever tried try to solve.‘We’ve actually followed two different roads; one is a robotaxi service that uses Level 4/Level 5 technology – a project we ran for a couple of years in the US.
‘We haven’t seen the endgame [of conventional battery technology] at all,’ says Schäfer. ‘We were forecasting a big breakthrough in the mid-2020s for solid-state technology, but it’s just not coming. Even so, there’s still so much room for improvement with the conventional lithium-ion battery.‘Adding silicon to the anode brings energy density up, and there’s a lot of space to do that, which then narrows the gap when you look at the forecast of what can be done with solid state.
