Replacement Parts for the Mercedes Benz S Class Hybrid Sedan
The combination of electric drive with the 7G-Tronic automatic
transmission ensures that the S-Class "Hybrid" constantly
operates at the optimum level. "This reduces fuel consumption by
15 to 25 percent depending on the driving cycle, while at the
same time enhancing comfort," says Prof. Herbert Kohler, Head of
the Vehicle Body and Drive Systems Directorate at
DaimlerChrysler AG.
Combining a V8 diesel engine with the latest generation of
hybrid drive systems developed jointly by DaimlerChrysler and
General Motors, Mercedes Benz introduces the S Class Hybrid,
which unlike many conventional hybrids, the system dispenses
with a torque converter; this is replaced by the hybrid-specific
components. The hybrid concept is based on the 7G-Tronic
automatic transmission in combination with the P1/2 hybrid
transmission, which thanks to its compact dimensions does not
restrict interior space. "The use of the 7G-Tronic automatic
transmission makes for a comfort level that is unique in the
world of hybrids," emphasized Weber. "Shifting is even faster
and more convenient in continuously variable mode."
Setting a new record for cars with hybrid drive system, the S
Class has a maximum output of 340 horsepower. The two electric
motors have a combined output of 70 horsepower. The diesel can
be started at any time without transition, independently of
driving mode. The V8 diesel engine recharges the battery while
the vehicle is in motion while energy is recovered during
braking. The hybrid concept is based on the 7G-Tronic automatic
transmission in combination with the P1/2 hybrid transmission,
which thanks to its compact dimensions does not restrict
interior space. The system dispenses with a torque converter;
this is replaced by the hybrid-specific components.
