Automotive technology company Continental has developed a braking system that conserves power and helps improve the range of electric vehicles. The braking system engages the brake disc from the inside, which enables it to have a large diameter. In turn, this process improves the brakes' efficiency. This is an important step in improving battery technology, as lithium-ion batteries are currently limited by their size.
