  • my bad!

    moreover, it will be one heavy car!, having a engine, 4 seperate motors and a generator

  • A recharge takes only 2-3 hours. Watch the clip again!

  • this is concept man! u'll have to wait some years before they put it on market!

  • So is this on all C30's? Or is it a special feature coming to a new version of the C30? I'm VERY interested in buying a C30 and I'd love if this was already in it.

  • thats tight

  • in a SENSE...seeing as how expensive a gallon of fuel is it be much cheaper to recharge ur car at home, drive it around for 3 hours LOL

  • they can skip the ICE engine and put LiPo (lithium polymer) batteries in the old engien compartment...

    that Will give you up to 65Km or more range one one charge, and a charge time of 15min to 1 h charge time depending on the charging module.

  • This car utilizes PML Flightlink's in wheel motors. This is the future of automotive transport today. Once this technology goes into mass production the cost will come down. You will also be able to convert almost any existing car by putting Hi Pa drive electric wheel motors in existing cars with the engine as a back up generator for the lithium batteries. This gives you unlimited range!

    Check out EVtransPortal for more info.

  • depends on some factors

    the weight of the car

    the aerodynamics

    driving style

    driving codidtions

    Seeing that a ford escort 2.0 L 116 hp engine gets somewhere around 34 mpg, this concept should get in the mid to high 30's, maybe even low 40's.

    driving range: unknown tank capacity

  • huh. kinda cool.
