Formula E. Spark-Renault SRT 01E racing car presentation in Frankfurt

On September 10, 2013 in Frankfurt, the official presentation of a Formula E car - Spark-Renault SRT 01E took place.
Formula E is a new FIA championship involving vehicles powered solely by electric power. It represents a vision for the future of the automotive industry in the coming decades, serving as the basis for research and development for all electric vehicles.
Formula E is a synthesis of the latest technologies, sports, science and design.



Dallara, Renault, McLaren, Williams and Michelin took part in the development.

Electric motor from McLaren Electronic Technologies.

Maximum power (limited): 200 kW, which is equivalent to 270 hp
Race Mode (energy saving): 133kw, equivalent to 180 hp
Push-To-Pass: 67kW
Maximum power will be available during practice and qualifying sessions. During races, the power saving mode will be applied with the Push-To-Pass system, which allows maximum power for a limited time to pass.
Dynamics: 0 - 100 km / h in 3 seconds.
Maximum speed: 225 km / h (FIA limited)



RESS - Rechargeable Energy Storage System

RESS is an energy storage system that is designed to drive a car with an electric motor. The main components of RESS are rechargeable batteries and a battery management system, and Williams Advanced Engineering is responsible for their development. Wiring is engaged in Renault.



Chassis from Dallara.

Materials used: carbon, Kevlar, aluminum.
Overall length: 5000 mm (max.)
Overall width: 1800 mm (max.)
Height: 1250 mm (max.)
Wheelbase: 1300 mm (min)
Ground clearance: 75 mm (max.)
Total weight (incl. Driver): 800 kg (min.) / Batteries only 200 kg

Tires from Michelin.

18 inches, have a tread pattern and are designed for use on both dry and wet roads.



Charging.

Drayson Racing and its technical partner QualcommHALO are developing a way to wirelessly charge a car. The system uses a parking space to charge the car. The system is tested on the electric sportcar Drayson B12 / 69EV.

The previous version of the coloring was, of course, more beautiful:



And here is another very funny video about the creation of Formula E (unfortunately, there is only an English version):



PS The author of the post is a big fan of Formula 1, so comments about the sound of an electric motor can be avoided, everyone understands that this is sadness to tears ...) But Formula 1 has always been a supplier of new technologies for mass-produced cars, thanks to Formula 1 modern cars are equipped : semi-automatic gearboxes, kinetic energy recovery systems (KERS), ceramic brakes, anti-skidding systems, anti-wings, steering control, telemetry and much more. Formula E also has every chance of success, given the latest trends in ecology and economy.
