PURE ELECTRIC DRIVETRAIN WITH A GAS POWERED RANGE EXTENDER
Incredible Flexibility, No Range Anxiety
Typical use of our vehicles’ unique drivetrain would be on long trips (over 40 miles) to drive in hybrid mode (generator on) to the desired hunting area, and then quietly in battery-only mode (generator off) when stealth is needed. If the total trip will be 40 miles or less, the generator will not be needed at all.
Electric Benefits
Our electric drivetrains offer numerous benefits, including remarkably quiet operation, terrain-tackling power and traction, as well as minimal maintenance requirements.
Compared to typical loud gas powered ranch and hunting rigs, our vehicles are virtually silent at low speeds and allow you to move stealthily into your hunting or viewing area without spooking wildlife.
The advanced power delivery controls we employ in our electric systems allow for precision traction management between front and rear axles, ensuring minimum slip and maximum grip.
With fewer moving parts compared to traditional engines and transmissions, our electric drivetrains reduce wear and tear, leading to lower maintenance costs and increased reliability.
Gas Benefits
The built-in gas powered generator can extend the vehicle’s 30 to 40 mile pure electric range up to 160 total miles, so you never have to worry about running low on battery far from the lodge.
You are in complete control. Our vehicles require deliberate starting of the generator so that it does not come on automatically in a situation where stealth is desired.
Additionally, the generator may be used to power tools or appliances in the field with standard outlets provided.
Series Hybrid Benefits
Our series hybrid configuration delivers the best of both worlds — a highly efficient and powerful pure electric drivetrain with the range extending convenience of a gas generator.
In a series hybrid, the wheels are driven only by the battery powered electric system, optimized for pure electric power delivery and efficiency. The gas generator only charges the battery and runs only when needed. Additionally, it runs at its most efficient rpm when in use, maximizing fuel efficiency.
Due to their simpler integration, series hybrids can be made more robust and dependable, which is of great benefit especially during remote journeys.
