open roof tarps covered, facing the sun, driving such a feeling Samba Bus go for a ride to some wonderful It can not be made.
These pictures are not taken in the 1960s and 1970s, but from the moment.
This car is scheduled to participate in the 2020 Techno Classica show, but due to the outbreak of the show and can not be held in accordance with the established date, so choose these public car pictures published on the Internet and the public.
In this Samba Bus based build, motive power “oil electricity”, the new car is named e-Bulli.
Bulli name was believed capable T1 do all the work, like the Mavericks, as it gives it the nickname (Bulli translated calf). The front of the letter E represents the power source.
For some classic car restoration, the replacement unit will power an electric motor, the internal combustion engine to replace the original seems to be on the road repair a shortcut. We have seen in many a classic car is the resurrection of such an operation, this operation is relatively more convenient, and more likely to succeed.
I do not like for the electrification of the “new things” and “elderly”, the electric car chassis to put on a classic car shell also seems to me to accept. Those blind pursuit of futuristic, science and technology, to design and design of the electric car styling it is people uninterested.
1966 Samba Bus body no matter from that point of view many people think is very pleasing to the eye. Sometimes, this simple design to better capture the attention of spectators. Round elements of that era Volkswagen brand’s signature features, popular in Germany, but at the time the Beatles.
T1 this round headlight, turn signal coupled with VW logo, together with the body looks very round coTone, V-shaped body-color moldings and it is the crowning touch, seemingly “honest honest” actually lively and agile.
through the pictures we can see that, although the entire vehicle is completely continuation of the year’s style, but a closer look at it, will find its lighting system to the modern devices , but also with LED daytime running lights.
In addition, painted white tires, rims and mirror-polished retro, look to enhance the tone of this car.
this e-Bulli equipped with a motor capable of providing 83 horsepower and peak torque of 212Nmiddot; m, with respect to the original that table 44 hp, 102 Nmiddot; m internal combustion engines, power data turned nearly doubled.
of the battery pack is spread on the bottom of the vehicle, which is currently a common practice in electric vehicles.
the original center of the vehicle Samba Bus is relatively high, now at the bottom of the vehicle after the installation of the battery, this situation should be improved. Flux
of the battery pack is 45kWh, endurance mileage of more than two hundred kilometers, the data looks a bit worried people, and now the electric car if the battery life but 500 km are out for a little bit embarrassed.
In addition to the new forms of power, vehicle chassis this aged old car has been repaired and improved.
has been redesigned suspension structure, the front and rear multi-link structure, to a rack and pinion mechanism packing structure, turn up more easily, and the brake member upgraded, see four brakes ventilation .
If this car interested friends, after hearing it could cost will be exposed surprised look. 64,900 euro pricing but not really low, and we have said in front of some of its mileage data, it is clear, it is not so practical.
Therefore, this can be a real e-Bulli station in the bag, it must be love. [END]
