As electric vehicle battery technology improves, the vehicle range will increase and costs will begin coming down. The less range anxiety consumers experience, the more likely they will be to invest in an electric vehicle.

In this video, Dave Lauzun of Siemens PLM Software discusses how companies are improving energy density, allowing for increased range and greater consumer confidence. Along with better range, battery improvements can allow for quicker charge cycles and lower costs of electric vehicles.

Organizations and engineers working on electric vehicles’ battery technology must focus on the vehicle as a whole, including electrification of brakes, powertrain and HVAC – all of which will be software controlled.

For example, companies must choose how much range they can give to the vehicle’s occupants versus HVAC comfort if the battery is running low. Software in electric vehicles must provide safety and comfort to the consumer so they can confidently reach the next charging station when needed.
