The Brabus car tuning company about their Brabus 4WD Full Electric concept car:
"320 kW (430 hp) of power and a peak torque of 3,200 Nm (2,360 lb-ft) from four electric wheel hub motors point the way to the powerful, efficient and ecofriendly luxury sedan of the future. Based on the latest Mercedes E-Class, BRABUS ZERO EMISSION, a business division of BRABUS, has developed the fully operational BRABUS High Performance 4WD Full Electric concept car. The all-wheel-drive vehicle, which celebrates its world debut at the 2011 IAA, accelerates from 0 - 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 6.9 seconds and reaches a top speed of 220 km/h (137 mph) and all without emitting as much as a single gram of CO2. A powerful 56-kWh lithium-ion battery pack provides an operating range of up to 350 kilometers (217 miles). There are plans for a small-series production run of this unique automobile."
My comments:
a) the concept of the Brabus 4WD Full Electric is very similar to that of the RR 102 EX: a huge battery pack instead of the combustion engine - and you can keep the practical and well proved limousine car body,
b) 2 electric engines in the Rolls-Royce Experimental Electric are very intelligent and efficient - 4 electric wheel hub engines might be even better: they unite the motors with the brake system and they must be very efficient, too as they don't have to move anything between the engine and the wheels,
c) a 4-wheel-drive is always of advantage, especially in sportive cars...
So the ingenious concept of the Rolls-Royce Experimental Electric has inspired other car companies, too and it lives on merrily with incredible enhancements...
Best wishes, Joseph de la Mikula and Team
