Liechtenstein-based nanoFlowcell AG plans to unveil a high-output version of its Quant electric sports coupe concept next month at the Geneva auto show.
The car, which features nanoFlowcell’s unique 48-volt ionic liquid-battery technology, gets an improved cell membrane with six cells arranged in series. The battery is teamed with four low-voltage electric motors. The design generates a combined 760 hp that can propel the car from zero to 62 mph in 2.4 seconds on its way to a restricted top speed of 186 mph, according to the company. Driving range is estimated at 620 miles.
NanoFlowcell’s low-voltage technology is based on “flow cell” chemical batteries refined in the 1970s as part of an energy storage system for NASA’s space program. The architecture uses two fuel tanks of electrolytic fluids, one with a positive charge and the other with a negative charge.
NanoFlowcell describes the updated system as the world's first variably controllable mobile flow cell for a constant source of electrical energy.
