Renault Eolab
Capable of running for 100 km whilst
using only 1 liter of fuel, the Renault Eolab joins the “French Revolution of
super-efficient cars”. Following Peugeot and Citroën, Renault revealed this
concept back at the Paris Motor Show 2014.
The name was derived from a blend of
“Aeolous” the Greek god of wind and the word “Laboratory” is capable of
returning an average fuel consumption of 1 l/100 km and 22 g/km CO2 emissions on
NEDC cycle. This was achieved with three basic technical advancements namely
lower weight, better and efficient aerodynamics and incorporation of Z.E.
Hybrid technology that allows the car to run purely on electricity for a
limited period of time.
Renault promises to launch a vehicle in
France by the year 2020 that delivers an average fuel consumption of 2 l/100 km.
