It's great inovation! Changing Heat Muffler to be electric

Powerful General Motors recieved a huge grant from the authorized Government of the United States, now it boost to develop dinamic automotive technologies for the more fuel-efficient consumption. One of the advanced technologies that are exactly still developed in the research and being expected to be used commercially is to change the exhaust heat of muffers into electricity.

Furthermore, abundant energy can be really stored or used directly for amazing hybrid cars. Even it is still using on conventional engine cars, it is used directly as a great source of power to operate the audio, air conditioning and other equipment.

When this abundant heat is wasted through engine of exhaust just left and not been widely used. Which it is considered as the most practical way to be possibly produced commercially and are turning it into electrical energy.

The accurate method is to use a mixture of metal (alloy), which was called "shape memory alloy" (SMA). Hopefully, this brilliant concept immediately headed to the prototype stage that can generate beneficial electricity.

How is that strong metal can convert beneficial heat into electricity? "When the SMA wires heated, there was expansion. When it is cool (cool with air blow), stiffness and reduced cable back into shape, "said January Aase, Director of the GM Vehicle Development Research Laboratory. "Furthermore, the cable reels are physically changing the used drive electric generators and it can be really used for filling the battery," added Jan.
He further pointed out that the generated electric power can be used as a source of driving a hybrid car. Even it is for a conventional engine - motor fuel - used as a replacement alternator. Thus, to obtain power no longer need to charge produced power of strong machine.

INIZIO's "Super Crazy Fast" Electric Cars are produced by Li-ion Motors running on Distance Up to 250mil

Official List of high performance for all of truly expensive electric sports car definitely continues to grow. The newest is fantastic INIZIO from amazing Motors Li-ion, which is exactly located in North Carolina. The authorized company recently won the Progressive Automotive X PRIZE in Side-by-Side Alternative Classes with impressive electric vehicle company Wave II.



The elegant INIZIO is powered by a continously rechargeable Li-ion Motors' lithium-ion battery providing more than 40 kilowatts of energy on-board, it's available to be able to increase until 96.7 kilowatts. With an optional package of extreme performance motor revealed, powerful electric motor can provide up to 207 horsepower and it realibly allows the supercar to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds. it's truly for Max speed of 170 mph.

And most impressive thing is the mileage to 250 miles, with a full charge that obtains at least 8 hours using a standard 220 volt outlet. official INIZIO owners can exactly expect a battery life of more than 2500 full charges.INIZIO has exclusive management systems and advanced batteries. Connected to the central data of Motors Li-ion ', a complicated system of remote diagnostic system proactively monitor and diagnose these INIZIO. If there is a problem, both the driver and Motor Li-ion will be notified by an "A dash-mounted LCD touch screen" that displays the remaining power, the battery temperature, power consumption, driving time and distance driven. It also can help drivers navigate to the choice of the nearest filling station.

Like the Wave II, the powerful Li-ion batteries are designed for the truly best aerodynamic efficiency. Those provide an optimum wing moves back down style and They are combined with the back hills that are embedded in the body directing the flow of air to reduce wind noise and drag. Those are Sleek exterior features of smooth and rounded edges, high intensity halogen lamp, and those are a removable hard top.

While the interesting section is close to the ground, this fast supercar can accommodate even NBA basketball player, good kind of monied buyers are target for Li-ion Motors. Access through door-style scissors rotates 90 degrees. A hydraulic elevator system lifts a car in three inches for easier entry and exit. The driver and passenger were treated to full power, regulated and suede Recaro leather seats with heating and cooling is good. Because the car showing the impression of low profile, side and rear view mirror is combined with high-definition cameras to provide 360-degree view around the car.

Nissan GT-R for Next Generation will be seriously made of 100 Percent Electric cars?

YOKOHAMA - Elegant GT-R is a meaningful symbol of excellence in the competitive arena of the Nissan sports car. This amazing car looks a lot of anthusiasts and it is considered sexy! However, new problems faced by other powerful manufacturers, is also experienced, including specialist supersport car-exhaust gas regulations which are more stringent. As a result, serios efforts to make the car faster and faster to get constraints.



Therefore, there is problematic speculation that the Nissan GT-R will be the next generation of wonderful hybrid cars or 100 percent electric. In fact, when blilliant Chief Operating Officer (COO), Nissan's Toshiyuki Shiga interviewed by Autocar UK, he did not dismiss if the next-generation GT-R is likely to be a pure electric car.

"The market is constantly changing and have become increasingly friendly to the environment. Thus, the possibility of pure electric vehicles into the sports car could have been. We have developed a hybrid Infiniti," said Toshiyuki.

At the end of this wonderful year, Nissan plans to introduce the GT-R with 3.8-liter turbo V6 engine capable of double-boosted engine power to reach 530 PS. However, analysts estimate, Nissan will face a problem due to increasingly stringent emissions regulations, especially for the European market.

Meanwhile, the outstanding producers have changed their magnificent concept sports car to meet emissions standards. Honda, for example, has made the CR-Z as a advanced hybrid car. Remarkable Porsche makes 911 Hybrid used for endurance racing 24 hours. Audi prepares the e-Tron. Meanwhile, Mercedes-Benz also do not want to lose to introduce the SLS AMG gulwing E-CELL-powered electricity.

Biker should try Kobra's electric motorbike produced by italian automotive manufacturer, MotoCzysz and how amazing?

Milan: Kobra, an electric motor produced by MotoCzysz, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer, is not known to the world yet. However, the motor designed by Cristiano Giuggioli it has a distinctive advantage.

Page of autoevolution.com, Friday (26/11) called Cobra Electric is equipped with ergonomic features form. This allows you to adjust the suspension devices with rider posture, both weight and height.


"Kobra is a multipurpose electric motorcycle which it is capable of fulfilling the desires and needs of motorcycle riders for touring, sport, and to support activities of the commuters," said Giuggioli.

As a result, the motor is not just offering driving comfort but it is also safety. Moreover, using the suspension device of ESA II, it works electrically and it can be arranged as required.

The main advantage lies in the Kobra's electrical power source which it will never run out. Because the electric motor supported by the robotic technology of the Kinetic Energy Regenerative System (KERS).

This technology is similar to the KERS technology in F1 cars. When motor braking electrical energy used by the motor will be recycled and filled into the battery. Energy recycling is used again when the driver step on the gas.

Because of that, this bike coverage is much longer. Unfortunately, MotoCzysz doesn't mention in detail how the power generated by power source motor.

Similarly, it is also for torque of acceleration from rest to a speed of 100 kilometers per hour, and maximum speed.

MotoCzysz is a manufacturer of motorcycle racing E1pc.
