The car
1. The end product is a light weigh vehicle that can reach speeds up to 220 kmph.
2. MDI's vehicle's have fibreglass bodies which makes them light, silent urban car. The car's body is tubular, light weight, and is held together using aerospace technology.
3. The vehicles do not have normal speed gauges. Instead, they will have a small computer screen that shows the speed and engine revolutions. The system allows for infinite possibilities such as GSM telephone systems, GPS satellite tracking systems, programs for delivery people, emergency systems, internet connections, voice recognitions, map presentation, traffic information, etc.
4. The seatbelt system is different from what we know. One part of the belt is anchored to the floor of the car, like traditional cars. The other part of the belt, in stead of being attached to the side of the car, is also anchored to the floor of the vehicle.
5. The vehicle's electric system is also revolutionary. MDI has bought a patent that is bound to reduce the importanceof electrical systems in all cars. The trick consists in using a small radio signal. The system makes the car 20 kilos lighter and considerably quieter.
6. There are no keys - just an access card that can be read by the car from your pocket.
7. In the single energy mode MDI cars consume around Rs 45 every 100 km.
8. When there is no combustion, there is no pollution.
9. The vehicle's range is close to twice that of the most advanced electric cars (from 200 to 300 km or 8 hours of circulation).
10. The recharging of the car will be done at gas stations, once the market is developed. To fill the tanks it will take about to 2 to 3 minutes at a price of Rs 90. After refilling the car will be ready to drive for 200 kms.
11. The car also has a small compressor that can be connected to an electrical network (220V or 380V) and will recharged the tanks completely in 3 or 4 hours.
12. Because the engine does not burn any fuel, oil has to be changed only after every 50,000 km.
13. The temperature of the clean air expulsed form the exhaust pipe is between 0 and 15 degrees below zero and can be subsequently channelled and used for air conditioning in the interior of the car.
