The Audi A8's MHEV technology uses a 48-volt electrical system to power a belt alternator starter (BAS) that assists the engine with starting, stopping, and acceleration. When the car brakes, the kinetic energy is captured and converted into electricity, which is then stored in a lithium-ion battery. This energy can then be used to power the car's electrical components, reducing reliance on the engine.
