Innocar

horizontal rule

The Innocar is the most recent development within Innosys Engineering. In order to demonstrate the engineering and building services Innosys Engineering can provide, a fully roadworthy electric-powered car is being designed and built. In the first evolution of this project, a conventional Daihatsu Cuore has been converted into an electric car using Li-Ion batteries and a three-phase asynchronous electric motor. The addition of a fuel-cell is planned for later stages of the project. This car will act as a showcase of what Innosys Engineering can realize with current technologies and it will promote further research into batteries, compact fuel-cell technologies and small-sized asynchronous drives. Innosys Engineering is able to take these technologies and turn them into a "turn-key" product.

An additional goal of the Innocar project is to trigger the automotive industry to embrace sustainabe transport solutions. Electric drives will give the designer more freedom to pursue an aerodynamic shape of the car than a combustion engine would. Components are smaller and more easily distributed. Innosys Engineering has the ambition to realize the next-generation car with important parties such as TNO, ESA and the Delft University of Technology. This car will also trigger the electric drive and energy storage market segments, while valuable oil can be used to create lightweight plastics.
