BATTERY DESIGN

Powering Munro is our in-house developed battery packs, engineered for uncompromising performance. Each vehicle houses three robust packs, with each pack containing 8 meticulously designed modules. Within each module, 5 rows of long-lasting LFP cells deliver dependable power.

Battery Pack
Module
Cell

400V battery pack architecture

400V architecture offers a balanced combination of cost-effectiveness, component availability, sufficient charging speed, and proven reliability. 

UN ECE R100 Certified

R100 certification involves rigorous testing to ensure that our high voltage system is safe and can withstand various hazardous conditions. 

ISO 26262 BMS

A compliant Battery Management System or BMS is essential for ensuring battery pack safety, mitigating potential hazards before they happen. 

Banded Prismatic Format

Formatting the battery pack in this way enables space efficiency, improved thermal management, scalability and energy density. It also simplifies manufacturing and gives packs more structural integrity. 

Volatile Organic Compound & Water Ingress Sensors

Sensors within the battery pack act as vital safety mechanisms, providing early warnings and preventing potentially dangerous situations.  

  • LFP batteries exhibit superior thermal stability, meaning they are less prone to thermal runaway. The phosphate-based chemistry of LFP batteries is more robust and can withstand higher temperatures without breaking down.   

    The chemical structure of LFP is more stable than other lithium-ion chemistries, reducing the risk of dangerous chemical reactions.  They are less likely to release oxygen when damaged or overcharged, which is a major factor in battery fires. 

    Additionally, LFP batteries do not contain cobalt, a toxic and often ethically sourced material used in other lithium-ion batteries. This makes them a more environmentally friendly option.   

  • LFP batteries excel in longevity due to their stable phosphate chemistry, enabling thousands of charge-discharge cycles with minimal capacity fade. This inherent stability and high cycle count make them ideal for long-term applications. While factors like depth of discharge and temperature influence their lifespan, LFP's robust nature ensures a durable and dependable energy solution. 

    With Series-M you can expect well over 3000 cycles before any noticeable battery degradation. 

  • LFP batteries distinguish themselves with a wider operating temperature range compared to other lithium-ion chemistries. Their stable phosphate structure allows them to function effectively in both hotter and colder conditions without significant degradation. This resilience makes them suitable for diverse environments, from scorching desert climates to freezing temperatures, enhancing their reliability in applications where extreme temperatures are a concern. 

  • Unlike some other lithium-ion chemistries where voltage drops significantly as the battery depletes, LFP maintains a relatively flat voltage curve. This means that our drivetrain receives a stable and predictable voltage output, leading to more consistent performance and predictable power availability until the battery is nearly empty. 

LFP CHEMISTRY

Munro Vehicles selects Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery chemistry for its vehicle platform, driven by technical considerations including enhanced safety, long life cycles, wide operating temperature ranges and consistent power delivery. 

NO SLOW DOWN, JUST POWER

Our proprietary battery delivers a flat charge curve, meaning you get sustained high-speed charging across a wide band of the battery range.

THERMAL

chassis blueprint style.523412117.png

Bi-Directional Heat Pump

A bi-directional heat pump provides highly efficient cabin climate control through its ability to both heat and cool the interior, eliminating the need for separate systems and saving valuable space and weight. More critically, it dramatically improves energy efficiency, especially for heating, by moving or recovering heat rather than generating it, thus reducing battery consumption and extending the driving range.   

Thermal Conditioning Of Battery Pack

Thermal conditioning of the battery pack in the Munro Series-M is crucial for ensuring optimal performance, safety, and longevity of its battery system. By actively managing the battery's temperature, the thermal management system prevents overheating during strenuous work or rapid charging, extending battery lifespan. Conversely, in cold conditions, it can warm the battery to ensure it operates within its optimal temperature range for efficient power delivery and charging.   

Auxiliary Heater

An optional auxiliary heater in the Series-M serves as a valuable addition to the thermal management system, particularly in extremely cold climates, by providing a dedicated and rapid source of heat. This, coupled with other convenience features such as a defrost windscreen and heated seats as standard, ensures quick and reliable defrosting of windows and comfortable cabin temperatures for occupants from the moment they start the vehicle.   

Climatic Control With Heat Recovery

Our unique heat recovery system captures waste heat generated by the vehicle's powertrain (motor, inverter, battery) and redirects it to heat the cabin. This significantly reduces the reliance on the battery to power the heating system, which is a major energy drain in electric vehicles, thereby extending the driving range.

STRUCTURE

SERIES-M PLATFORM

Munro has designed and develop its own bespoke platform for Series-M electric 4x4. This design emphasises durability and off-road capability. 

  • TRUE OFF-ROAD DNA: Coil-sprung live axles with optional diff locks enhance articulation by forcing the opposite wheel down when one is raised, maximising tyre contact and maintaining ground clearance on uneven terrain.  

  • BI-METAL BODY DESIGN: Aluminium body panels are composite-bonded to a steel structure, providing a perfect compromise between weight and strength. 

  • INTEGRATED OCCUPANT PROTECTION: Achieved through a combination of passive and active safety features, integrated into the vehicle's design and construction.

LADDER-FRAME CHASSIS

Using a ladder frame chassis provides significant technical advantages for off-road use due to its robust construction, offering exceptional durability and strength to withstand harsh terrain and heavy loads. Well-designed with sufficient crossmembers, it delivers high torsional rigidity, crucial for maximising suspension articulation and maintaining optimal traction on uneven surfaces.  

Specific features include: 

  • 5MM S355 STRUCTURAL STEEL is used in ladder chassis components for maximum frame rigidity and extension of product life. 

 

  • FULL COVERAGER E-COATING on bodyshell and chassis components to resist corrosion complaint with ASTM B117 standard.

BODY-ON-FRAME DESIGN

A body-on-frame design provides significant technical and design advantages for the Series-M. It enabled Munro to create a spacious cabin with excellent visibility, while the robust, standalone chassis delivers the core strength required for demanding off-road conditions and heavy-duty applications. Anti-vibration mounts between the body and chassis help isolate occupants from drivetrain noise and harsh terrain vibrations. Additionally, the ability to separate the body from the chassis simplifies maintenance, repairs, and future modifications. 

 MUNRO PROPRIETRY SOFTWARE

Our proprietary software allows for maximum control and customisation.

REACTIVE VEHICLE DYNAMICS

The specially developed software in the Munro Vehicles Series-M enables reactive vehicle control through its comprehensive management of key systems, allowing the vehicle to respond dynamically to changing conditions. The software manages crucial EV functions, including battery monitoring, regenerative braking, and power delivery, enabling real-time adjustments for optimal performance and efficiency.

ADVANCED THERMAL MANAGEMENT

By continuously monitoring a real-time thermal model during driving, the system proactively manages the thermal performance of the vehicle and cabin, maintaining the battery, motor, and other components within optimal temperature ranges to ensure peak performance in demanding conditions and extreme environments.

TESTED & SECURE

The reliability of the Series-M is further enhanced by a comprehensive test programme for its embedded software, encompassing real-world test data alongside automated test scenarios and AI-driven static code analysis, which continuously scan the vehicle’s codebase for potential vulnerabilities and deviations from safety and quality standards.

A ROBUST SUPPLY CHAIN

Munro is working with proven Tier-1 OEM suppliers to source highly reliable components, usually from the truck and bus sector where vehicles are run for millions of miles.​
