From Formula 1 To Your Avenue Car
The Formula 1 racing sequence always features technology that's perhaps seven years or more in advance of what we'll ultimately see in road-use automobiles.
Inside of this video, the case is being generated for Formula 1 technology (carbon fiber phone case) moving into BMW's first mass-produced energized vehicle, the BMW i3:
"BMW i3 is one of many cars this description now come equipped with F1 technology. The Carbonfibre Reinforced Plastic Monocoque is being seemed to ensure road safety. "
"CNBC's Torie Campbell gets behind the wheel of just a BMW i3 to see what's and as a result special about the car's design? "
To ensure road safety? No, that certainly is not why carbon fiber material is being for the the i3. It's there essentially to keep weight to a minimum and it appropriately does that, seeing that the i3 BEV weighs only 2, 635 pounds.
From Formula 1 to your car or truck. That's why racing series can be really important and why we cannot wait around for Formula E's first racing this Fall. Eventually, the technology used in Formula E will make this can into our road-going EVs.
