Mexicos Hybrid CarThe vehicle could reach a speed of 50 miles per hour and would have capacity to transport two passengers. The prototype would be finished in three months, announced the academic institution in an official notice. Instead of to fill with gasoline, the tanks of the automobile would be recharged with hydrogen that, when making contact with enemy with the fuel cells, would generate the energy electrical whereupon the motor works. ” The Ecovía (the name of the automotive prototype) is a concept of automobile closely related to the context universitario” , it said Oscar Saline, coordinator of the project.
The idea is that the vehicle supports some services that the academic institution offers to its community, among them road and medical aid, transport and monitoring. The car is able to store in a battery the energy that was generated in the fuel cells to use it later, in addition counts on an addition to recharge itself through a taking of electrical current, according to the UNAM. With a cost of about $395 thousands, the escape of the car would expel solely aqueous vapour and heat, apart from which he would be totally quiet. ” It is the first public university of the country that will totally cover the costs with a project of this tipo” , it indicated the UNAM in an official notice.
The Ecovía measures little more of about 10 feet of length, has about five feet of height and other five of stop, as well as 185 miles of autonomy with two hydrogen tanks and 45 miles with the loaded battery.
