1,000 hp VOLAR-e All Wheel Drive Electric Supercar Unveiled [VIDEO]

Applus+ IDIADA, a company specialized in engineering for the international automotive industry, has successfully completed the Volar-e project, an innovative prototype electric car with high performance, comparable to or even better than conventionally-powered sports cars.

The Volar-e was built in collaborated with Croatian firm Rimac so the chassis is a Rimac Concept One. The Volar-e features a carbon fiber body or a tubular chromoly chassis. There is an active chassis control system and a torque vectoring system that promises to improve the car's handling.

Powertrain:

Power: 800 KW

Torque: 1,000 NM

0 to 60: 3.4 sec

Top Speed: 300 km/h

Battery: 38 kWh

Fast-charging: 15-20 minutes

Vehicle dynamics:

Electro Brake: 4 wheel Regenerative braking

Friction Brakes: Carbon ceramic brakes

Independent power control for all 4 motors: iTORQ developed by Applus+ IDIADA

The project, which was co-funded by the European Commission, is intended to allow the Applus+ prototype to become a flagship for the promotion of electric vehicles in European society.
