Presented the Chinese equivalent of the Tesla Model X





It is obvious that the electric car Tesla Model X and Google self-driving car will change the world around us. But none of them compares with China's GAC WitStar hybrid, unveiled this week at the auto show in Detroit (USA).

The Chinese "Model X" not only has electric propulsion and Autonomous driving functions, but also equipped with a built in aquarium! You heard right: an aquarium for fishes. To meet this at the auto show — a rarity.





WitStar is the latest concept car company of GAC Motors Guangzhou. The futuristic crossover SUV is built on the platform of a sedan, according to Motor Trend magazine, offers a power reserve of more than 100 kilometers.

As soon as Li-ion battery with 13 kWh reaches the status of "devastation", the work included 4-cylinder petrol engine volume of 1 litre, which increases the distance that a car can go without refueling, up to 600 kilometers. It is reported that this system consumes just 2 litres of fuel per 100 kilometers.





In addition to the hybrid powertrain of the car has Autonomous driving system that includes a laser radar, high speed CCD camera, infrared camera and GPS. On the basis of information collected through multiple sensors information in real time creates a three-dimensional map of the terrain on which the car is moving. The computer takes over part of the functions of vehicle control – acceleration, steering and braking.





The highlight of the interior of the car, of course, is the aquarium. It is located between the rear seats, in place of the armrest. In General, the design of the car is smooth, futuristic and restraint.

Another feature which can't be avoided – doors in the style of Tesla Model X. Tesla prefers to call them "Falcon Wings", which translated to English means "the Wings of a Falcon".





It should be noted that GAC is one of the largest automakers in China. The company produces passenger cars under the Trumpchi brand. GAC has manufacturing relationships with well-known companies such as Honda, Toyota, Mitsubishi and Fiat.
