Another of those “battery breakthrough” technologies has progressed to real-world testing, but we won’t get our hopes up just yet.
Electric vehicle advocates are always looking for that revolutionary new battery technology that will at last bring about a full-scale electric takeover of the auto industry. Most promising advancements never amount to anything, but the hope remains.
A German partnership of nanoFLOWCELL AG and Quant thinks it has the answer, and now their masterpiece will progress beyond mere simulations to the real world.
The scintillating Quant e-Sportlimousine made its debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March. It is a drop-dead gorgeous prototype vehicle that is powered by an intriguing cross between batteries and fuel cells.
Who says there has to be a debate between the two technologies? Quant’s nanoFLOWCELL technology borrows characteristics of each.
