Renault has unveiled the prototype Twizy Renault Sport F1 adds System Kinetic Energy Recovery of an F1 car and a body inspired by the F1 electric Twizy. The system gives the car about five times the potency of the more potent Twizy and Renault standard states that accelerates as quickly as Renault Megane Sport to reach 100km / h in about six seconds. The most powerful standard Twizy has a maximum speed of 80 km / h. The car will make its world debut at the IAA in Barcelona on 27 and 28 April.
is immediately obvious that there is something special about this Twizy given the front baffle, side deflectors, rear spoiler and a diffuser that integrates the lighthouse rain-style F1. The car uses the same slick tires and wheels of a race car Formula Renault 2.0.
The prototype has, in fact, two electric motors. The standard unit of 17cv Twizy 80 remains in the car, beyond the 80cv system kers. When the kers is used, the prototype attains a maximum speed of 110 km / h.
KERS is composed of three main elements: an engine-electric generator directly connected to the transmission, specific batteries lithium ion battery and a control unit (KCU – Kers Control Unit). The batteries provide enough momentum to the kers run for 14 seconds, and the system weighs 30 kilograms. The batteries also require cooling to maintain temperature.
“We always said we wanted to develop the F1 technologies that are relevant to the car lot! hope this car makes you smile while we spent a serious message. The project was directed by Renault Sport F1 and Renault Sport Technologies in closely with the Director of the Renault Electric Vehicles “revealed Jean-Michel Jalinier, President and CEO of Renault Sport F1.
Renault Sport had to remove the rear seat to integrate the KERS, which means that the prototype F1 Twizy is now a single seater. The unit Kers is visible inside a transparent compartment at the rear.
There is no way the Twizy produce enough energy under braking to recharge as KERS in F1 car. To provide additional recharge to the KERS, drains more energy than standard electric motor when power is needed. The driver can control whether the system is in recovery mode or recovery of energy through the wheel of a Formula Renault 3.5 car.
After being exhibited in Barcelona, ??the car can be seen on the slopes at promotional events all over the world.
