microB: All electric AWD sub-compact car with 2 SLIDING doors; Using 2(60hp motor+WarkoCVT+differential), one set for the front wheels and one for the rear wheels, installed along the center of the floor; Powered by the mutch awayted EEStor ultracapacitor; Uses a solid spaceframe or structural shell and deformation zones at each end: front zone designed for progressive plasticity will deforme sideways and downward deflecting the car from the obstacle; the skin pannels are made with pigmented plastic structured at the back and isolated with molded styrofoam; Laminated lexan for the front and rear windshields as well as the small side windows means less weight in the uper part of the car, better thermal isolation and more protection (door windows have to be breakeble in case of emergancy); The unique overall shape of the car is the special secret ingredient: in calm or direct wind conditions the force of air resistance at the front is allmost equal to the force applied by the air rolling inward on the back of the car. The surface underneath the vehicle (lower at the front, higher at the back) provides consistant downforce but it allso canalises air thoward the wheels. Now the propeller-shaped magwheels suck that air out sideways and this has a coniderably positive effect in side wind conditions at highway speeds: The incoming air arrives from a given front agle, high preassure pushes onto the car, stream contours the sahpe and at the other side separates creating a low preassure zone that vacuums the car in the same direction. Now the air thrown out by the wheels shoud fill that low preassure zone and significantly improve stability.; Notice the Michelin Tweels as summer tires; etc...

  • Hey man get with the times, electric cars are old news. Cars run on water now. The spark plugs of any car can be replaced with water splitters that turn water into HHO gas as it's pumped in. There is a device called a "Geet" that can reduce any cars emissions to zero. Do you know about the energy storage capacity of high gold atoms in their high-spin mono-atomic state? Do you know anything about pulsed plasma physics? Obviously not.

  • @Galv140577 Thanks, now I know. Interesting! See allso the Infrared ''solar'' pannel: efficient night and day since infra red light is omnipresent, can be printed on any surface...

  • Please post your comments.

  • go hydrogen, it is actually a zero emission car

  • did you do the whole design on sketchup alone? or did you transfer is to other programs, by the way it looks good! :)

  • Am vazut ca modelezi destul de bine chestiile tehnice si chiar Lada aia e f detaliata, doar ca nu pricep de ce conceptul tau e nu e la acelasi nivel din punct de vedere al caroseriei, are niste elemente bine facute pe o parte iar pe de alta alte elemete cam slabute, geamurile, colturile masinii....

  • the music is a little much but not a terrible design. put it in a better renderer and see how it looks if more photoreal.

    maybe put it through a virtual wind tunnel software
