Eco Factor: A concept car with a hybrid engine system.
After some really weird concept cars we got to see lately, here is one which looks a bit more practical. Designed by Serge Totsky, The TownCar, is a 5-door s-segment vehicle that has been designed for the modern eco youth. This five-seater has been designed by integrating all the modern green technologies that are presently available.
The car gets powered up by a hybrid engine, which runs on two eco sources of energy that include a fuel cell system residing under its hood and solar panels sitting on top of the roof. The designer expects that these hybrid technologies are enough to propel the car to speed in excess of 110mph, which sounds pretty decent when we look at some other variants where the top speed had to be sacrificed to clean up the vehicle.
A four-wheel steering system has been introduced in the car, which should allow the driver to turn the car in tight corners. Moreover, the driver of this car would have an option to choose the power source needed for the drive, while the speed lovers will opt for the combination of both the sources, the slow riders would have solar panels at their disposal.
The Dark Side:
The car is one of the most practical concepts that we have seen lately, but since hydrogen filling stations are not as common as the gasoline counterparts, we don’t see many who would be interested in driving a couple of hundred miles to get this car refueled.
