Runs on Electric supply form Batteries Do not create pollution
Ultra-capacitor
The purpose of this device is to allow higher accelerations and de-accelerations of the vehicle with minimal loss of energy
Ultra capacitors are a new technology that allows to store 20 times more energy than conventional electrolytic capacitors.
Working
Advantages
By using this technique [ultracapacitor] , the vehicle can be made to run approx 150Km in one go. The energy wasted in braking can be made use in charging of ultra capacitor [Regenerated braking]
Pollution Free
Further Aspects
Energy can also be generated from the axel of the vehicle
Energy of the ultracapacitor can be used in other applications of the vehicle like A.C
Final Idea
Design a hybrid vehicle which can make use of regenerative braking to charge the ultra capacitor which can increase the efficiency of the Hybrid vehicle
