SCG P4/5 Competizione M

Key project requirements

| Energy: 1MJ
| 400C Pulsed Charge/Discharge Power
| Power density > 6.000 W/kg
| Cell to pack weight ratio: 70%

After a successful season of races on the Nürburgring,
Podium Advanced Technologies designed and installed a
bespoke compact and high power battery pack for the hybrid
conversion of the Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus P4/5C M.
At the time (2012) the P4/5C M was the first hybrid car to
successfully complete the Nürburgring 24 hours race, winning its class and playing a pioneering role in hybridization of GT cars.
The 400 V battery that in the race version occupied the
passenger space has been miniaturized for road use.
