NCV(Nano Cellulose Vehicle) Concept Car
Reference exhibits
- Cellulose nanofiber(CNF)is a material composed of nanosized cellulose fibrils. This plant-derived material, which offers high strength and high modulus is expected as the next generation material. The Ministry of Environment of Japan proposes a future car contributing to reduction in the emission of carbon dioxide from automobiles. The NCV (Nano Cellulose Vehicle) concept car installs as much CNF automotive parts as possible and the weight of the car has also been reduced by more than 10% from the standard weight. Since CNF is a carbon-neutral material, it can be expected not only to reduce CO2 emissions during driving due to weight reduction, but also to reduce CO2 emissions through the life cycle of automotive product.
All GaN Vehicle
Reference exhibits
- All GaN Vehicle (AGV) is a compact sports electric mobility designed for an urban usage targeted a wide range of age groups from a younger generation to a middle-aged generation. AGV is a next generation eco-friendly mobility powered by GaN electronics such as a driving inverter, a DC-DC converter, etc. GaN LEDs and laser lighting devices are also installed. In-wheel motor is adopted in a drive system to secure a degree of freedom for a design of an interior space, and a cabin space of 2+α is designed on the short body with 3m. Maintenace-free airless tires are adopted for sharing serices, etc. Furthermore, CFRP material is adopted for suspensions and airless tires to secure light weight and high rigidity.
