DHD REX at a Glance

• Architecture & Efficiency – Reduces size, weight, and system cost while delivering validated efficiency.
• Operating Modes – Electric driving, generating mode for efficient range extension, and optional parallel hybrid mode for improved highway performance.

“In China, Range Extender adoption is driven by extending range and specific regulatory specifications. In North America, it is shaped by practical needs such as extended range, towing and limited charging infrastructure. In Europe, it is influenced by evolving post-2035 regulatory frameworks. These differences require adaptable technical solutions, addressed by Magna with DHD REX and DHD Duo, delivering serial and optional parallel REEV concepts with BEV-level efficiency and performance,” Magna said.
