China has shown the first solar vehicle

Company Hanergy presented at the motor show in Guangzhou car Solar R solar.

Solar panels installed on the hood, roof and all other body surfaces, except the side Windows. A large part of the technologies used in solar panels are covering a new car Hanergy, based on the technology of Alta Devices AnyLight. Originally it was developed as a way to extend the range of the electric cars. The concept of Solar-R was developed by the Beijing design firm CH Auto. It is based on the same platform as the model K50 engine is Qiantu. The car is equipped with two electric motors — one for the front and rear axle. Hanergy does not disclose any information about engine power and characteristics of the battery that receives power from thin-film solar cells with a total area of four square meters.


The interior looks very good for a show car: a racy steering wheel, horizontal screen instrument panel, large touch screen multimedia system. The car is stripped of rear window, which replaces the solar panel, and the shape of the rear panel is designed to reduce aerodynamic drag. Wheels shod with low profile tyres, behind which lurk in black-and-blue brake pads. Solar panels are heated by absorption of sunlight and need to be cooled. Access and airflow to the most massive rear panel is provided through air inlets located behind the rear doors.


The first production version of the concept R Hanergy Solar is expected by 2025. The car will also get a standard charging system. Hanergy is one of the largest energy company in the production of thin-film solar panels in the world. Hanergy is also the owner of the American manufacturer Alta Devices, which he bought in 2014. published
