The air conditioning manufacturer is said to have found a way to extend the range of electric cars by 50%

A leading Japanese air conditioning manufacturer has developed a special refrigerant for electric vehicle air conditioners, which can significantly extend their range.


When driving in extreme temperatures, the air conditioning or cabin heating system can cut a good chunk out of electric cars. However, the Japanese company Daikin, a leading local manufacturer of air conditioners, boasted a new discovery that could extend the range of electric cars by up to 50 percent.

The company boasted a special refrigerant for air conditioning systems, which should significantly reduce energy consumption. The new refrigerant has a boiling point of -40 ° C, which is about 10 to 15 ° C less than currently used conventional products, as supplied by the Nikkei Asia website.
