US-based E-Van, the composite body division of Embassy Specialty Vehicles, has introduced its new insulated liner for use in a range of electric vehicle applications.
The insulated liner delivers thermal resistance in a slim design, making it well-suited to EVs from delivery vans and work trucks to RVs and buses.
Using a rigid vacuum insulation panel with a microporous core, encased in a thin, gas-tight envelope, the insulated liner delivers high thermal resistance, keeping cargo temperatures stable, extending EV range by reducing HVAC load, and enhancing passenger comfort.
The liner’s ultra-thin design maximizes interior cargo space, so that space-constrained EV designs can benefit from the 2.5-incgh thickness of the insulated walls. It can be integrated into various wall, roof and floor systems, adapting to specific vehicle designs.
“The E-Van insulated liner complements the core E-Van body enhancing thermal resistance that will aid in improving the efficiency and range of commercial EVs. Lighter weight and an R-60 insulation rating reduces the energy requirements of heating and cooling commercial EVs, thus increasing potential range, and enabling the development of refrigerated commercial EVs,” said Mike Schoeffler, CEO of Embassy Specialty Vehicles.
