Peugeot Fractal Concept – The electric sports for Frankfurt [video] – Quattroruote

Powertrain and chassis. Peugeot Fractal Concept is driven by two electric motors, one for each axis, capable of delivering a total power of 204 hp. The 40 kWh battery, located in the central tunnel to balance better the masses, allows you to travel, according to the House, up to 450 km in combined cycle. Thanks also to the weight of only 1,000 kg, it comes to 6.8 seconds and 0-100 in 28.8 seconds to reach the kilometer from a standstill. The frame can rely on the four-wheel steering, on operations of the two motors to optimize the hanling of the vehicle and on the structure adjustable in height (from 7 to 11 centimeters from the ground) to balance aerodynamics and comfort.

Indoor hyper. The new convertible Urban offers important innovations in passenger compartment, where in addition to a further development of the i-Cockpit was also an integrated audio system 9.1.2 designed by the PSA Group in Stelab1 collaboration with Focal. Each backrest has a dedicated subwoofer and the system can provide a particularly detailed dynamics of the sound, both internally and towards the outside world, developed with the help of sound designer Amon Tobin. The particular conformation of the door panels and coatings recalls that of an anechoic chamber to optimize the acoustic performance of the entire car and only a 3D printing process (80% of the elements have been obtained with this process) has allowed to produce the all with absolute precision. The car is also equipped with a specific acoustic signature which helps pedestrians and cyclists to recognize the arrival, but at the same time gives the driver acoustic information localized in space, such as, for example, voice guidance for the navigation facing the direction desired and with variable distance based on the actual turning point with a treatment information software separated according to the open or closed position of the roof.

Controls remotely. The instrumentation raised is composed of a slab digital holographic 12.3 inches and a lamina of polycarbonate inclined by 45 degrees to provide the depth effect , while the steering wheel is equipped with two touch pad. In the center console, however, it is a screen AMOLED 7.7 inch which controls the main board functions. Passengers have small touch screen to manage the preferences of your area. The finishes of the passenger unite white leather, mesh and special coatings in black oak and copper. The driver can interact with the car remotely via the wearable technology of Samsung Gear S, through which you can check the state of charge, battery life, the position of the car and you can unlock the locks. Once on board the car recognizes the user and set preferences related to climate control, instrumentation and audio system.
