New automotive electrical systems planned for rollout in 2004 (BMW) and most other major manufacturers by 2007 are going to be 42 volt. From what I have read they are going to use a 42 volt lead-acid battery.
I wonder how they are going to carve out the space under the hood or do they just start putting the battery in the trunk like BMW has for decades.
