nanoFlowcell, an experimental brand that has just completed 150,000 kilometers on road tests with its latest model, the city's Quantino.

 

The nanoFlowcell system works like a fuel cell, but uses ionized salt water instead of hydrogen. In this case, the liquid with positive ions is separated from the liquid with negative ions. When both pass through a membrane, the ions interact, generating electrical energy that is used to move the car. The end result is water, just like in a hydrogen fuel cell, allowing the car to run at zero emissions and fast refueling. Since 2014 the German company has been developing prototypes, such as the sporty e-Sportlimousine, the Quant F crossover and the Quantino compact. These have been tested on the road, with Quantino showing the validity of the concept. After completing 100,000 kilometers in August last year, the German car has now reached 150,000 kilometers in traffic. During the tests, it was able to cover 1000 kilometers for 8 hours and 21 minutes, without needing to refuel.

 

The Quantino has space for four people in the interior, with a motor of 80 kW (109 hp) for a weight of 1421 kg, which does not prevent it from exceeding 100 km / h in just five seconds. NanoFlowcell wants to start producing this car in series in the medium term.
