SAAB 9-3 as Strigear hybrid

A car identical with SAAB 9-3, but with the original power train replaced with a Strigear power train, could consume 3.23 liter/100km, emit 86 g CO2/km and accelerate 0-100 km/h in 8.6 seconds.

Simulation

Strigear provides the simulation that the above results are based upon. We recommend that the simulation documentation is read first. Two simulation files are available. One linear, which describes the Strigear concept quite accurately AND which is quite straightforward to verify using simple Excel formulas and tables (for engineers with adequate experience), but which is simplified in that it has constant efficiency in the mechanical transmission. The other is a nonlinear simulation which uses multidimensional tables to get a very accurate representation of the losses in the mechanical transmission BUT, unfortunately, is too complex to verify using simple Excel formulas (also for engineers with adequate experience), as it based not on formulas or simple tables but on more complex real data measured in a laboratory.
