In a conventional electric vehicle is an established principle of practice. Mazda now introduces the "i-ELOOP" world's first regenerative braking system of the car. Abbreviations "ELOOP i" stands for "Intelligent Energy Loop," or German "Smart Energy Circle." This system operates with a condenser and in 2012 was the first Mazda model to use. The operation of the regenerative braking system will save by accelerating and braking about 10 percent of the fuel.

Capacitors should already know some scenes CAR-HiFi. He served there, especially for a constant voltage during peak loads and stabilize the electrical system. For Mazda, the capacitor stores energy from the i-ELOOP during each braking operation. Advantages over normal battery is speed, work with the capacitor. They can be loaded and unloaded quickly and resistant to wear. Within a few seconds, Mazda's "i-ELOOP" is fully charged, to convert kinetic energy into electric vehicles. Then a variety of consumers in the car is (radio, climate, etc.) are included with stored electricity.

The basic idea of ​​the new braking system is simple and efficient: the engine and alternator are free of extra work, because it may be more effective and thereby also reducing fuel consumption. Mazda i-ELOOP present Japan at the Tokyo Motor Show 42 from 30.11. - 04.12.2011 in the photo above concept vehicle "Takeri".
