The hybrid Volkswagen , VW compact coupe NCC, was presented at auto show strait.
This car looks like something out of the future by offering a range of options more astonishing than the other. This model has been designed with a simple: to make pale his competitors. This hybrid model is driven by an alliance extremely innovative in terms of technology close to production versions.
The cut version will use a four-cylinder engine range petrol TSI. Direct injection, turbo and heat exchanger, placed between the engine and fuel system to cool them, generate an output of 110 kW/150 hp from only 1.4 liters. The TSI engine off, which of course is equipped with ESP, will transfer a torque of 220 Newton (177 lb-ft) to the front wheels.
This VW is proposing even more power by inserting an electric motor between the engine and gearbox TSI seven-speed automatic, which develops a power of 20 kW. A lithium-ion battery (1.1 kWh), placed at the back, feed the electric motor.
In braking, the electric motor becomes a generator. It recovers the kinetic energy and then stores it in rechargeable Lithium-Ion. Like all new models of hybrids, the new compact coupe also has a Stop-Start (On / Off) on board. This system reduces fuel consumption, especially in urban areas and in the stagnant circulation.
The hybrid Volkswagen will compete against the Ford Fusion, Altima and Civic Hybrid. This car is a hybrid of the least polluting of his generation by offering a low CO2 emissions of around 98 g per km.
Will she live up to its promises? Wait and see!
