Raser unveils 100 mpg SUV

Raser Technologies, Inc. plans to reveal a 100-plus mpg SUV at the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) World Congress in Detroit, April 20 to 23.

The Vehicle is powered by Raser’s extended-range electric vehicle (E-REV) powertrain and was developed in conjunction with Raser’s integration partner, FEV, and a global automaker. The full-size SUV is a four-wheel drive E-REV designed to achieve more than 100 mpg in typical local daily driving with near zero emissions by driving up to 40 miles per day in all-electric mode.

Just one year ago, at the SAE World Congress, Raser announced it was developing an E-REV powertrain for use in full size SUVs and light trucks and had teamed with a leading OEM to build a demonstration SUV. This highly anticipated vehicle, featuring Raser’s electric powertrain, is now in road testing and will be unveiled and on display at this year’s show in FEV’s booth. In addition to SUVs, the powertrain is sized for application in many popular light trucks.
