at the 2015 Festival automobile international. The
supermini sized Eolab hybrid demonstrates nearly 100 production-destined technological innovations, which will appear on future models by 2020. It is powered by a 1.0-litre,
I3 petrol engine producing , paired with a ‘axial flux discoid’ electric motor located in the clutch casing. All power is delivered to the
front wheels via a three-speed gearbox. A small 6.7kWh
lithium ion battery pack is attached to the system, providing on electric power . The Eolab features two driving modes: weekday, which emphasises low emissions, and an alternative ‘weekend’ mode uses both power units together to greater performance and range. The resulting emissions are a low at 22 g/km. To keep the car's
kerb weight down to , ( less than the equivalent production
Clio), the body is constructed from a combination of steel, aluminium and composites, with the roof entirely of magnesium. The car also incorporates three ride-height levels which lowers the car and reduced drag, working in conjunction with active aero on the wheel trims (on narrow 145 mm tyres) and spoilers reduce the
drag coefficient to 0.235 . == See also ==
