A vehicle is provided with an electric energy storage device including a first sub-storage device for electric energy and a second sub-storage device for electric energy, the first sub-storage device and second sub-storage device being electrically connected together by a switch assembly. The first sub-storage device and the second sub-storage device each include at least one respective electrochemical storage cell, wherein the at least one electrochemical storage cell of the first sub-storage device has a stability-optimized cell chemistry, and the at least one electrochemical storage cell of the second sub-storage device has an output-optimized cell chemistry. The at least one electrochemical storage cell of the first sub-storage device is arranged in an impact assembly of the vehicle.

Vehicle with an electric energy storage device

A method operates a particulate filter through which exhaust gas can flow in a vehicle, in which ash is introduced into a filter body of the particulate filter, wherein at least one ash former or at least one ash component is arranged on at least one carrier material upstream of the filter body in the direction of flow of the exhaust gas.

Method for operating a particulate filter in a vehicle, and particulate filter for an internal combustion engine in a vehicle

An assembly for determining lambda values of an exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine is provided. The internal combustion engine is attached to an exhaust gas treatment device with at least one first catalyst and a second catalyst. Additionally, the assembly has the following: a first lambda sensor in a first removal line, wherein the first removal line is designed to remove a part of the exhaust gas upon entering the first catalyst and conduct same back into the exhaust gas treatment device after the exhaust gas passes the first lambda sensor, and the first lambda sensor and at least one part of the first removal line are arranged outside of the exhaust gas treatment device; and a second lambda sensor in a second removal line, wherein the second removal line is designed to remove a part of the exhaust gas between the first catalyst and the second catalyst and conduct same back into the exhaust gas treatment device after the exhaust gas passes the second lambda sensor, and the second lambda sensor and at least one part of the second removal line are arranged outside of the exhaust gas treatment device.

Assembly and method for determining lambda values

A method for operating a particle filter of a vehicle includes creating an ash to be introduced into a filter body of the particle filter by arranging a carrier material of an ash former on an input side of an end face of the filter body, as viewed in a flow direction of an exhaust gas through the particle filter, and combusting the carrier material, where a non-combustible constituent of the ash former is arranged on the carrier material. The created ash is then introduced into the filter body of the particle filter.
