Armadillo-T Electric Car - அர்மெடிலொ-டி இலத்திரனியல் மொட்டர் கார்

வணக்கம் நண்பர்களே...

காலத்திற்கு காலம் அதிகரித்துவரும் போக்குவரத்து நெருக்கடிகள் இட நெருக்கடிகள் போன்றவற்றினைக் கருத்திற்கொண்டு பல்வேறு திட்டங்கள் உருவாக்கப்படுகின்றன.


இவற்றின் ஒரு அங்கமாக குறைந்த இடவசதியிலும் பார்க் செய்யக்கூடிய Armadillo-T  எனும் அதிநவீன கார் ஒன்று உருவாக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது.


KAIST இலுள்ள கிரீன் ரான்ஸ்போர்ட்டேஷன் எனும் நிறுவனத்தில் பேராசிரியராக பணியாற்றும் In-Soo Suh  என்பவர் அவரது குழுவினருடன் இணைந்து மேற்கொண்ட ஆராய்ச்சியின் விளைவாக இக்கார் உருவாக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது.

hi friends....

There are plenty of small, fuel-efficient (or entirely electric) cars available now, but a team of researchers at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology have taken the term "compact car" to the next level. 

According to Phys.org, the team from KAIST has built a foldable, micro electric car inspired by the animal that it is named after. 

Armadillo

The Armadillo-T has a design similar to the shell of its namesake and can fold the rear half of its body into the shell, reducing its size by almost half. When fully folded, the Armadillo-T can cut its size from 2.8 meters to only 1.65 meters, a move its creators think makes it an ideal vehicle for parking in the city. With the average 5-meter size of a parking spot in Korea, three Armadillo-T vehicles could fit in the space of one normal car.

Beyond its folding capacity, the Armadillo-T features an all-electric motor with a 13.6 kWh battery and four-wheel drive; it also has a 10-minute fast charging capability that'll give it a range of 100 km. Though with a top speed of only 60 km/h, you're not likely to take this car on any highway — but that's not what it was designed for. "I expect that people living in cities will eventually shift their preferences from bulky, petro-engine cars to smaller and lighter electric cars," said professor In-Soo Suh. "Armadillo-T can be one of the alternatives city drivers can opt for." Its creators also envision it as an ideal candidate as a shared car for city usage rather than a vehicle someone goes out and buys from a dealer. 

"This car is ideal for urban travels, including car-sharing and transit transfer, to offer major transportation links in a city," said professor Suh. The car is far from production-ready, but the team plans to keep pushing it forward to get it beyond the prototype phase.

Thank-you Very much
