TOPIC :- THE MOST FUEL EFFICIENT CAR MADE BY AN

INDIAN.

THE MOST FUEL EFFICIENT CAR BY A GERMAN.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE FUEL EFFICIENT CARS IN INDIA AND ABROAD WITH THEIR DRAW BACKS.

INDIAN

FUEL EFFICIENT CAR MADEIN INDIA .

IT WAS MADE BY Mumbai college students, THAT can achieve upto 300 kilometers per litre .

Students of Mumbai based KJ Somaiya College of Engineering successfully designed, built and tested a fuel efficient car capable of achieving a mileage of upto 300 kilometers per litre.

Designed and built by second and third year students of KJ Somaiya College of Engineering, dubbed as the Team ETA, today launched its flagship entry Shell-ecomarathon Car Race. The eco-friendly car, wholly conceived by the students of the college, took a year to prepare and ready.

Remarkably, it is also the only team representing Maharashtra at the marathon to be held at Manila, Philippines, in February, 2014. The team was due to participate in the event last year as well, however owing to poor weather conditions in Malaysia, the marathon was cancelled.

This actually allowed the students to build upon the existing model, called Jugaad '13, and enhance it with a better use of advanced technology.

The car carries a 35cc engine, and gear box for power transmission. Similarly, the clutch for the older car

followed a centrifugal designed, while the new car has a self designed clutch.

The car weighs almost 45 kg.It’s body is made up of

Plastic. It runs as a three wheeler as it has three cycle

wheels fitted in it

DRAWBACKS IT CAN’T RUN ON Bumpy ROADS.

IT IS A SINGLE SEATER CAR.

IT’S TOP SPEED IS ONLY 46 Km/Hr.

IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AS ITS BODY IS MADE OF PLASTIC AND THERE ARE NO AIRBAGS.

ABROAD

FUEL EFFICIENT CAR MADE IN GERMANY

The new Volkswagen XL1 Super Efficient Vehicle (SEV)

The world’s most fuel-efficient car, the Volkswagen XL1, which was first unveiled at the Qatar Motor Show in 2011, has now been confirmed for an initial production run of 200 examples.

Pioneering construction techniques, an advanced plug-in hybrid drivetrain and innovative packaging all play a part in allowing the XL1 to return 313 mpg on the combined cycle while emitting 24 g/km of CO2 to set a new benchmark for vehicle efficiency.

VOLKWAGEN XL1

Powering the XL1 is a compact 800 cc TDI two-cylinder common rail diesel engine developing 48 PS. It’s linked to an electric motor producing 27 PS, resulting in a total of 75 PS – a modest output yet more than enough when the low kerb weight (795 kg) of the vehicle is taken into account.

The TDI engine is linked to an electric motor and a seven-speed DSG gearbox with an automatic clutch mounted between each unit. The electric motor can either work independently of the TDI engine or in tandem when accelerating. Accelerating from rest to 62 mph can be achieved in 11.9 seconds; the electronically limited top speed is 99 mph. Thanks to its plug-in hybrid system, the two-seater can cover a distance of up to 50 km in all-electric mode and therefore with zero local emissions.

The styling of the XL1 is borne out of functional requirements – easy access to the interior is granted via a pair of elegant scissor doors that hinge on the A-pillar while the profile of the car has been honed in the wind tunnel, the result being a remarkable coefficient of drag figure of 0.186. The XL1’s overall length (3,970 mm) and width (1,682 mm) are similar to those of a Volkswagen Polo yet its height (1,184 mm) is more akin to that of a sports car.

The XL1 will be produced at Volkswagen’s Osnabrückfactory in Germany.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE BOTH CONCEPTS:-

INDIAN GERMAN

IT IS MORE FUEL EFFICIENT MAINLY FOR MARATHONS.

IT NOT SAFER TO DRIVE AS IT HAS NO AIRBAGS AND ITS BODY IS MADE UP OF PLASTIC.

IT CAN RUN ON A TOP SPEED OF 46 Km/hr.

IT IS A SINGLE SEATER CAR

IT IS A HYBRID CONCEPT CAR WHICH CAN RUN ANYWHERE.

IT IS SAFER TO DRIVE AS IT HAS ALL THE SAFETY FACILITIES .

IT CAN RUN AT A TOP SPEED OF 156 Km/hr.

IT IS A FIVE SEATER CAR

INDIAN GERMAN

IT IS A GOOD CONCEPT BUT IT CAN’T BE DONE BECAUSE OF ITS CAPACITY.

IT IS AN ALROUNDER CAR WHICH IS DECLARED AS THE WORLDS BEST FUEL EFFICIENT CAR.
