Piper SV Sprite: EV Powertrain Integration + Chassis Integration
The Brief
Piper SV wanted to build a small electric sports car, based on the Frogeye Sprite. The vehicle was very small, but needed high energy capacity (+40 kWh), and must provide an exciting, well balanced driving experience.
What We Did
We packaged the vehicle chassis and powertrain, to ensure we met energy and weight distribution targets. We built the battery pack and chassis. We tested the EV powertrain. We used IonLab UVCU for vehicle control.
The Result
We achieved a 43 kWh battery pack, within a compact vehicle, weighing only 800 kg.
IonLab Products Used: UVCU
Electric Motorcycle: Semi-Solid-State Battery Pack
The Brief
Design and build a battery pack for an electric motorcycle using semi-solid-state cells, achieving an energy density target greater than 280 Wh/kg.
What We Did
Designed the pack's mechanical structure and thermal management around the cells
Integrated the IonLab BMS for monitoring and protection
The Result
Designed for 14.8 kWh at 52 kg (about 285 Wh/kg at pack level). Prototype on test from January 2027.
