The leading Japanese automobile giant, Toyota has promised the launch and showcasing of its Le Mans hybrid technology wagon on a road car show to be happening at Frankfurt for the year 2013. It is preparing to unveil the concept of this wagon to the media and its followers.
The new concept is based on the Yaris blah and would find unimposing for first time hearers and reviewers. People need to reserve their judgment at this point as the original version has not been released yet and hope this would not be yet another miniature hatchback.
It has been anticipated that this new hybrid technology wagon would offer a lot of other supercars their run for money. Its images and details have been reveled this September 10th at the Frankfurt motor show this hybrid R would reveal the concept of how the future hybrid technologies could maximize the driving pleasure and performance of automobile owners.
Toyota Yaris Hybrid R:
The Yaris has already been established in the European market and is been the best selling cars on the market. This would get revealed at the Frankfurt motor show to check and address its application in the American and Asian market.
The concept has been called as the Yaris Hybrid R and is a feature as a three door rocket that could deliver lots of horsepower. This hybrid would incorporate the technology from the hybrid racecar from Toyota’s TS030 that has in the past competed in the championship series of the FIA world endurance level.
Technical integrities of Hybrid R
The vehicle packs a horse power of 300 and is turbocharged with a 1.6 liter engine with four cylinders under its hood. This engine capacity should be enough for most speed freaks in the world and Toyota is in the venture of pairing this with two 60 hp electric motors each at the rear wheel .this would get the total system output to reach 420 horse powers. It is worth noting here that the same concepts were used in the production of Yaris Hybrid that has been sold in Europe.
Along with these features, Yaris Hybrid R would forgo the traditional battery that gets packed below the rear seats and is in favor of a super capacitor that could hold and deliver greater energy for the wagon and has a pretty higher power charge and discharge speed when compared with that of most traditional batteries.
Along with the super capacitor is the 60 hp electric motor or in other terms a generator that gets positioned between the engine and its transmission system geared by six speed sequential gear box. The role of this generator is to feed the capacitor with energy during deceleration and to direct its power to the electric motors fitted at the rear wheels to enhance their grip wherever desired.
To conclude,
This power train has been considered to be highly tech and spec oriented to be powered on roads and its race boy sort of an appearance is not that appealing for average users. But it is no ordinary track warrior as Toyota is offering both track and road driving modes with the wagon.
