SIM-LEI electric car

SIM-SIM Ltd. Drive-learned from watching a TV program of NHK announced that the electric car that LEI.

TV show name: Documentary WAVE "- when it enters the motor to the tire contact? - New electric car"
SIM-LEI Press Release: http://www.sim-drive.com/news/2011/0329press-release.html

In much the same battery electric vehicles are already commercially available, it has achieved a range of 333km in JC08 mode.
And were summarized as follows: the point of my own achievement.

• Outer-rotor in-wheel direct drive motor expression: In terms of a simple expression extremely rotated by magnetic force generated by a system inside the magnet coil fixed to the wheels.
• Frame with built-in components: frame all housed under the floor of the main components of the drive system. In the TV show was to highlight the integration of body and battery.
• Weight and air resistance: transmission by eliminating the need for such in-wheel motors, lighter parts more efficiently by incorporating the frame underneath. Above the floor frames can be freely designed so nearly adopted the form that emphasizes the reduction of air resistance.

Mass production of cars based on these technologies that are targeted around 2013. Safety and stability, price, and those commercial vehicles increased to a level ride, I hope that production can be realized.
The remainder of the technology, SIM-Drive is the impression people have gathered has been active in the past by various Japanese manufacturers. Make the running position even after the age of 50, who is an engineer 見習Itai. Moreover, given the recent intensification of international competition and, if all systems and is beyond each company's Japan, then also I think it's great.
