Electric Mobility atau eMO's electric cars from Tata Motors


Detroit - Tata Motors started to show its existence in the automotive world. Various works of automotive started getting worldwide attention and will certainly be very desirable automotive enthusiasts will be new surprises.

Tata Motors was not only known through the Nano, the world's cheapest car. Company from India (Pune) is - has offices in foreign countries - has also attracted the attention of automotive engineers in the Motor City (Detroit). In particular, when Tata Technologies in Detroit, showcased an electric car concept called by Electric Mobility or eMO.

"By leveraging the Global Delivery Model and knowledge-based engineering, product development can be done more quickly and cost-effective," said Kevin Fisher, president of Tata Technologies about emo.

Price
The concept that carried the urban electric car cheap. Ancer-ancer retail price of the manufacturer (Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price: MSRP) for the car early, around 20,000 dollars (not including tax discount) or Rp 183 million. For an electric car, valued competitive

4-Passenger
The concept of Emo is a small electric car that can carry 4-adult passengers. Sources of energy, 18.4 kWh battery that can run the car as far as 161 km. Dikebut maximum capability, 105 kph and can do 0-32 kph sprint in 3.4 seconds.

Without Baggage
Another interesting concept of this electric car, do not use the pillar B. Rear door can be opened 90 degrees. With two doors can be opened, passengers and goods, the more easily expelled from or input to the cabin. Then the use of glass for the roof, aiming, in addition to reducing weight, giving the impression of the cabin relief.

Another interesting package of engineering this car was the front seat placed on top batera. To cool the battery, the air is passed through a small channel in front of the saucer. While the electric motor and electronic controls, placed under the "nose" cars. No special baggage. If you bring the goods, the rear seat must be folded.


Further, because it does not use a motor fuel, the car body surface could be made more smooth, aerodynamic and "overhang" short. Work on body and paint is no longer done traditionally, but using environmentally friendly materials.

According to Tata Technologies, a multidimensional approach that they do in to engineer the product.
