Toyota Hi-CT Car
The hybrid car runs with 1.5 L petrol and electric engine. With its floor-mounted battery, it can be recharged directly from the mains (its design provides drivers a much better position where they can see better visibility and allows the chassis with a lower center of gravity).
The Hi-CT car has been designed by engineers and inventors to cater to the demands of youth living in an urban setting. It has a total size of 3,330-meter long, 1,695-meter wide, and 1,780 tall.
Since the vehicle adopts an AC100V accessory socket, it would be possible to store electricity. This design is highly-efficient and beneficial to car owners since it will save them from the high-price cost of gasoline and diesel.
The Toyota Company designs this vehicle to effectively recapture loss energy during the process of braking. This ingenuous design converts the kinetic energy into some other form of usable electrical power. The company also utilizes the technology of a special battery system specifically designed to be effective in restoring power.
Another consideration in designing this car is providing a mechanism wherein this would automatically shuts down or minimize energy-consumption during idle periods (such as traffic jams). With this feature, there would be lower fuel-consumption.
The car’s mechanism relies from gasoline and electric motors, a feature which also greatly contributes to the energy-efficient design.
Many experts believe that this hybrid-electric vehicle (internal combustion engine and electric motor) would provide a reliable solution to environmental problems such as pollution, adding that this would lower gas emissions dramatically.
