Another day, another concept car that made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show and we must say that this particular vehicle has certainly attracted a a lot of attention as we’re talking about a Sportlimousine from NanoFlowcell.
Yes, it seems that this particular company has decided to wow the public with a quite a large two-door vehicle calling called the NanoFlowcell Quant e-Sportlimousine. If the size factor seems impressive, let us tell you that when it comes to the engine you’re also in for a surprise.
Apparently, NanoFlowcell’s e-Sportlimousine features four electric motors, one for each wheel, promising a combined maximum output of 80kW (925PS or 912hp) and a normal operating output of 480kW (653PS or 644hp). Thus, we’re talking about a car that can go up to 100km/h (62mph) in merely 2.8 seconds al thanks to the electric motors, the company saying that “It] works like a combination of a battery and a fuel cell using liquid electrolyte, which is kept in two tanks and pumped through the cell.”
So, we could say that with this particular system, the company is bringing something new to the table as nanoFLOWCELL technology offers major performance improvements. The only problem seems to be with the fuel liquid but according to the company there is nothing to be worried about as it doesn't contain any environmentally damaging components.
Moving on to the design part, the NanoFlowcell’s e-Sportlimousine is quite a large vehicle (5,257mm) that features a sleek and futuristic design. Also, the doors are gull wing doors measuring alone two meters in length. The car rides on a 3,198 mm wheelbase, being 1,357mm tall and 2,109mm wide and comes to weight around 2,300kg (5.071 pounds) when all of its flow-cell fuel tanks are full.
It would definitely be something to have this raptor-of-a-car on the streets and if we were to take on the word of the company, it seems that we could be seeing some road-going prototypes soon enough. Apparently, they have plans to to have this concepts done by the end of year, thus we’re certainly in for something interesting.
