Concept Flashback - 2011 Nissan Esflow Showed Potential EV Mini-Z



Quote:
Once upon a time...
As recently as the 2011 Tokyo auto show...
Nissan was more excited about its EV technology's prospects, and less terrified by the scale of the huge EV investment that is still not working as we enter 2015.

The possibilities in 2011 seemed endless for new packaging and new powertrain layouts. No longer enslaved to front-drive or rear-drive platforms by engine location, the battery EV revolution was indeed promising.
But how to inject a little fun into the extremely dull and practical sales appeal of the Leaf EV.

Enter the ESFLOW concept.

The voiceover is pretty corny, but the visuals & engine sounds are fun... I don't remember hearing the obvious f-bomb dropout when it aired here, though.

Concept EV uses LEXAN windows to boost range
https://chargedevs.com/newswire/concept-ev-uses-lexan-windows-to-boost-range/

Quote:
The concept vehicle, developed as part of the Visio.M (Visionary Mobility) project, uses windows made of LEXAN resin, a polycarbonate (PC) material made by Saudi Basic Industries Corporation (SABIC). Compared to conventional glass, using the LEXAN windows reduces weight by over 13 kg and extends driving range by up to two km. Polycarbonate’s superior insulating properties reduce demands on the car’s heating and air conditioning system, and make possible up to 15 additional kilometers in extended range. The concept EV weighs 450 kg (without battery), and has a 15 kW motor.......................

Current European regulations permit PC to be used for all automotive windows except the windshield.

The red car is a replica of the original Futura and is being manufactured today.

The Batmobile was heavily modified by Barris for the TV show from that original Lincoln Futura show car. Under the paint, etc, it's still the Futura.
