Why is Hertz deploying a huge fleet of Teslas? Hint: it has little to do with emissions.
Are rental car customers ready for EVs? We’re going to find out. Rental giant Hertz theoretically began introducing EVs to its fleet in 2011, and competitors soon followed. However, they were offered only in select markets, sometimes at super-premium prices. Meanwhile, Teslas became popular on the peer-to-peer rental network Turo. Now Florida-based Hertz, which rents… Read more »

New Epoxy Encapsulation and Impregnation Materials for Reliable Insulation of Electric Drives
For the electrification of the automobile powertrain, new materials play a crucial role enabling and facilitating a wide adoption of electromobility. This presentation is focused on new materials serving as secondary insulation in the stator and rotor (e.g. facilitating new 800 V and ESM magnet less rotor designs). Based on thermal, electrical, ambient, mechanical and… Read more »
Power HIL Solutions for Power Electronics Testing
Electric powertrains and inverters are safety-critical components (ISO 26262) that require comprehensive, automated testing at the power level. These inverters can be tested without a real motor at full power using dSPACE Power Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) systems. Our Power HIL systems combine the flexibility of established HIL systems and real energy flow of mechanical testbenches. Join… Read more »
