The Japanese mark keeps on betting for the care of the environment and in recently celebrated Lounge of the Motorcar of Detroit has presented a new hybrid Concept. The model of Toyota that we you bring to this blog of the engine receives the name of FT-CH Hybrid and gives an idea of what in a future will be the new ecological compact one of the signature.
Although Toyota has not revealed a lot of information of his newly presented prototype, if we can move forward anyone to you, for example, it is a little smaller than the current model made of series with the same technology, the Prius, to be exact it is 56 centimeters more shortly and scarcely 2,5 less breadth. Namely we speak about a car that is 3,9 meters long for 1,72 wide one, therefore he would come to be one of more compact children of the market, since in Europe this type of vehicles is about every 4,2 meters long.
In addition to a few more suppressed measurements, the FT-CH is less heavy than the Prius. This way, the future production model will enjoy a few levels of consumption and emission lower than those of the popular hybrid of Toyota. This also influences the costs of production, which certainly will be cheaper than those of the Prius, therefore his final price also will be more limited.
With a few measurements and very suppressed weight this Concept it wins in manageability, what will turn him into a very urban car without resigning from the long trajectories. The Toyota engineers have managed to give him a much more attractive and juvenile aspect which will facilitate his sale to another type of public more carefree than that of the current one of the Prius.
As for the mechanics the most logical thing is that there makes use of the joint propellent of the Prius of third generation, that is to say, the engine of gasoline of 1.800 c.c. and 98 CV of potency joined the electrical one of support, to sign a joint potency of 134 CV. On having weighed less, so much the consumptions level like that of emission, they will turn out to be limited.
