Abstract:
This disclosure details exemplary battery pack designs for use in electrified vehicles. Exemplary battery packs may include a polymer-based enclosure assembly having features for both retaining components and transferring loads inside the battery pack. The battery packs may include one or more snap-in features for retaining the components and one or more foam spacers for separating adjacent battery arrays and establishing a load transfer path inside the battery pack.
