BMW 3: Voltage supply
The 12 V vehicle electrical system of the G20 PHEV is essentially the same as
the electrical system of
the G20. The main difference lies in the fact that the power supply is no longer
by the alternator, but
by the high-voltage electrical system. The high voltage of the high-voltage
battery unit is converted to
the lower voltage (approximately 14 V) using a DC/DC converter in the Electrical
Machine Electronics
(EME). The electric voltage supply of the 12 V vehicle electrical system is thus
no longer dependent on
the engine speed of the combustion engine when driving.
Another difference is that the starter motor and auxiliary battery form an
independent 12 V vehicle
electrical system, which is connected to the standard 12 V vehicle electrical
system by the charging
unit for the auxiliary battery (Battery Charge Unit (BCU) ).

The bus systems of the G20 PHEV are based on the bus systems of the G20. All
the main and sub-bus systems of the G20 are also used in the G20 PHEV. Compared

Driver profiles can be created to store personal
vehicle settings. If the vehicle is used by multiple
drivers, each driver can create his personal driver
profile. When a driver profile is selected, the vehicle
will automatically apply the stored settings in
the driver profile.

Front airbags help protect the driver and the
front passenger by responding to frontal impacts
in which safety belts alone would not provide adequate
protection.
