Deze nieuwe aanpak maakt deel uit van een bredere herziening van de technische architectuur van het bedrijf, waardoor de binnenruimte van de auto\u2019s groter wordt. <\/b><\/p><p>Hoewel elektrische auto\u2019s een hoogspanningsaccu hebben om hun elektromotor(en) van stroom te voorzien, beschikken ze ook over een traditionele 12-voltaccu, net als auto\u2019s met een verbrandingsmotor. Deze kleine accu voorziet het elektrische systeem aan boord van stroom. Hij voedt onder andere de deursloten, verlichting en ruitenwissers, en ook de contacten die het hoogspanningssysteem isoleren wanneer de auto niet in gebruik is.<\/p><div class=\"leaky_paywall_message_wrap\"><div id=\"leaky_paywall_message\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"nag_logo\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/nmn-logo-long-transparent-small-4.png?w=300&#038;ssl=1\"  alt=\"Nieuws over nieuwe mobiliteit\" \/>\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"text-center\">\r\n\tLees dit artikel nu gratis!\r\n<\/h2>\r\nRegistreer een gratis account en krijg toegang tot dit artikel en haal meer uit New Mobility.\r\n\n\t\t<div id=\"leaky-paywall-quick-register\" class=\"inline\">\n\t\t\t<form id=\"leaky-paywall-quick-register-form\" method=\"POST\" action=\"\" data-trp-original-action=\"\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<p class=\"form-field email-field\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<label for=\"email\">E-mail<\/label>\n\t\t\t\t\t<input class=\"email\" type=\"email\" name=\"email\" placeholder=\"Voer uw e-mailadres in\" value=\"\" required>\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"form-field password-field\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<label for=\"password\">Wachtwoord<\/label>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<input class=\"password\" type=\"password\" name=\"password\" placeholder=\"Maak een wachtwoord aan\" value=\"\" required>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<input name=\"company_url\" type=\"text\" value=\"\" autocomplete=\"off\" tabindex=\"-1\" style=\"display:none !important; position:absolute; left:-9999px;\" \/>\n\n\t\t\t\t<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"level_id\" value=\"20\">\n\n\t\t\t\t<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Registreer gratis\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"trp-form-language\" value=\"nl\"\/><\/form>\n\n\t\t\t<div id=\"leaky-paywall-quick-register-errors\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"text-center\"><strong>\u2014 OF \u2014<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<p class=\"text-center\"><strong>Nu abonneren<\/strong> Krijg onbeperkte toegang tot de originele content van onze uitgeverspartners, ontvang meldingen over het laatste nieuws en krijg dagelijks een zakelijk overzicht, samengesteld door onze gespecialiseerde journalisten, met de belangrijkste artikelen over uw sector die u moet lezen.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"nag_buttons\">\r\n\t<a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/newmobility.news\/nl\/abonnement\/\">Nu abonneren<\/a> \r\n\t<span class=\"nag_button_divider\"> of <\/span> \r\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/newmobility.news\/nl\/log-in\/\">AANMELDEN<\/a>\r\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chinese automaker Leapmotor is removing the 12-volt battery from its future electric cars, relying solely on the high-voltage battery.
