KapanLagi.com - Mazda Nagare Remember that appeared in the Los Angeles Auto Show in 2006? Seeing the concepts, like Concept Hyundai i-Flow is to imitate the concept of 'flow' Nagare offered at that time. Mimic or are inspired actually legitimate as long as the results can be better than products that emulate. Fortunately that's exactly what happened at the Hyundai i-flow of this Concept. At least proportionally, i-Flow is more interesting than Nagare.
Hyundai's i-Flow Concept
Curves and lines that collide is the basic concept design Concept Hyundai i-flow. Starting from the front to the aft end of the i-Flow was met by a line accent coupled with the curved shape which is advantageous in terms of wind resistance. Design is a matter of taste but can not be denied if the i-Flow is indeed very pretty, especially if you include people who like to do something that sounds futuristic.
Front view of i-Flow is inevitably dominated by the large grille that seems to be a hexagonal shaped Hyundai's trademark. With taper-shaped headlights and fenders bulge upward like a canine form, complete the look was fierce i-flow front. Full-arch concept was maintained until the stern is approximately equal to the front. Not only that, the body was decorated with a scratch side in a strong overlap, giving special accent to make this concept car.

Interestingly, the roof is made with layers of semi-transparent solar cell that can absorb sunlight and convert it into electrical power. Actually, Hyundai has a clear intention when designing the i-flow design and not just tagging along to offer Mazda Nagare concept. The reason is the coefficient of drag. With this revolutionary design, the i-flow could reach only the value of the drag coefficient of just 0.25.
Not without reason is also the roof of this car is made by coating the solar cell because of this i-Flow is conceptualized as environmentally friendly transportation aka hybrid car. Under the hood is attached i-flow turbo diesel engine with four cylinders with a capacity 1.700cc supported by installation of Lithium Ion-Polymer batteries. Besides that this concept car using a six-speed dual-clutch gearbox, still seem secretive Hyundai i-flow specification.

Not only using the hybrid concept car roof and use as a 'crawler' solar energy, i-Flow also features a variety of technology that reportedly can save fuel as well as reduce exhaust gas emissions. First, Hyundai is working with BASF to design the concept of maintaining the temperature of the car remains optimal (above 40 º C for 14 hours. With this capability of i-Flow is claimed could save fuel up to 9%. In addition, Hyundai and BASF also install technology that allows converts heat from exhaust gases into electrical energy.
