Aja, pol je pa res brezveze/nepotrebno.

Sem enkrat bral o tem in sem si zapomnil tisto kar piše v stavku "The Volt operates as a pure battery electric vehicle until its battery capacity drops to a predetermined threshold from full charge. From there its internal combustion engine powers an electric generator to extend the vehicle's range as needed",
in spregledal "When the engine is running it may be periodically mechanically linked (by a clutch) to a planetary gear set, and hence the output drive axle, to improve energy efficiency."... to je pa IMO res nepotrebno kompliciranje.

Me zanima, zakaj proizvajalci tako vztrajno tlačijo zraven opcijo direktnega linka motor->kolesa, jaz bi to eliminiral in naredil 100% električni pogon, ICE motor pa da ima izključno vlogo generatorja...
