In the continuation of this text, we will introduce a number of revolutionary automotive technologies that can bring major changes to the automotive industry.
The automotive industry is currently the most advanced industry in the world, which welcomes new surprises every day.
The rise of electric cars and the tendency of car manufacturers and drivers towards this category of clean cars has caused a new standard to be formed in this industry and some incredible car technologies have been born in the car industry; Technologies, some of which have the potential to permanently change the course of this industry!
Some of these technologies have been unveiled with the aim of answering the big problems of communities and drivers. For example, electric cars are an example of the amazing achievements of automakers that solve the problem of air pollution caused by the consumption of fossil fuels and promise a bright future for the automotive industry.
At the same time, all automotive technologies are not necessarily designed with the aim of answering a need, and some simply intend to make small improvements in the current technologies of this industry.
More importantly, some of the current technologies of the automobile industry are only in the development phase and will remain in this phase for the next few years!
These technologies have only been unveiled with the aim of drawing the future and there is still a long way to their final use in commercial vehicles.
In the continuation of this text, we introduce several attractive automotive technologies that have the potential to permanently change the automotive industry and drivers’ habits.
The most attractive automotive technologies that have the ability to revolutionize the automotive industry
Toyota solid state battery technology
According to many experts, electric cars are the future of the automobile industry. However, some limitations of electric cars have prevented their spread in different societies.
The most important drawbacks of this category of cars are their low mileage with a full charge and long charging time.
However, Toyota claims that the solid state batteries designed by the company’s engineers are able to solve both problems at the same time.
According to the claim of this well-known Japanese brand, the new solid state battery technology will reduce the size and weight of electric vehicle batteries by 50% and will also significantly reduce their production costs.
At the same time, the important question regarding solid state batteries is whether this technology is able to meet the needs of the industry? Toyota’s answer to this question seems to be yes! But several times before we have witnessed the noisy unveiling of various technologies in the field of electric car batteries; Technologies, many of which ultimately did not lead to the creation of a commercial product.
However, if these types of batteries can reach mass production, according to Toyota, electric cars will be able to cover a distance of 1200 kilometers with each full charge. In addition, the charging time of these batteries will reach less than ten minutes!
No specific timeframe for commercial production of solid-state batteries has been announced yet. However, Toyota has already expressed hope that it will launch these batteries on the market by 2025.
Six-minute electric car battery charging by Nyobolt
Another interesting car technology in recent years that has the potential to turn this industry upside down is the six-minute electric car battery charging technology proposed by the English company Nyobolt!
Unlike Toyota, instead of focusing on solid-state batteries, Neobolt has spent its energy on optimizing lithium-ion battery packs to bring ultra-fast charging to these batteries.
The car produced by this company is designed based on the Lotus Elise car and offers a mileage of about 250 kilometers. At the same time, this company has announced that its new ultra-fast charging technology can be applied to the battery of heavier vehicles such as SUVs. Nyobolt’s car is scheduled to go into mass production in 2024.
Nyobolt company also claimed that the batteries it produced can be charged up to 2000 times without the slightest loss of performance.
In this way, assuming that the car produced by this English brand covers a distance of 160 km between each charge, the life of the batteries used in this car can be estimated to be around 322 thousand km.
Like any other startup, Nyobolt has a difficult path ahead of it to turn its idea and prototype into a commercial product.
However, if everything goes as the company claims, the electric car industry will soon face a major revolution.
Swedish electric roads
Currently, the most important way to charge electric cars is to visit charging stations. However, the Swedes are developing new automotive technology that could turn roads into dynamic chargers for electric cars!
Of course, these electric routes are mostly prepared for trucks and public transportation; Because these cars are more important and have the highest battery capacity.
At the same time, in the continuation of the development plan of this system, private cars are also supposed to benefit from the benefits of these electric roads.
The researchers who are responsible for the development of this technology have claimed that in order for this plan to be economically justified in the long term, about a quarter of the roads in Sweden should be equipped with this technology.
Naturally, the designers of this system will focus on highways and busy roads.
In this regard, a road in this country has been selected as a test route and the process of turning it into a charger for electric cars is supposed to begin in 2025.
Of course, the method of doing this is not yet clear. One of the main ideas in this regard is the use of a network of cables and masts similar to those used in some other European countries for electric buses and trams. Of course, in this case, electric cars will not be able to use this technology.
For this reason, some other scientists suggest the installation of special charger rails, such as what we see in some subway systems. On the other hand, some others have described the induction and wireless charging system as the most appropriate way to charge electric vehicles on the road.
It seems that the third method is the most suitable method for personal electric cars, and according to scientists’ research, using this method, the battery size of these cars can be reduced by 70%.
Of course, this technology is still in the development stage.
McMurtry’s record-breaking car
In July 2023, it was announced that McMurtry Spéirling’s incredible car with an amazing power of 1000 horsepower, which was produced in only 100 units and set great records, will be sold for a price of one million dollars.
The shape of this extraordinary performance of McMurtry’s car is based on the installation of an innovative fan system in it, which is capable of producing a downforce of 4400 pounds, which makes the car firmly stick to the road!
Of course, this is not the first time that a car uses a fan to suck the air under the car to increase the downward force. Earlier, the Brabham BT46 Formula One car used the same technology to provide very high downforce.
However, McMurtry has taken this technology to an incredibly high level and delivered a stunning technical performance.
In the latest tests done on this car, it took only 1.4 seconds to reach a speed of 96 km/h, and it took only 4.98 seconds to reach a speed of 233 km/h. In addition, it took only 7.97 seconds for this car to cover a distance of 400 meters.
For comparison, it is not bad to know that the Bugatti Chiron hypercar needs about one second more time to reach a speed of 96 km/h!
Of course, fan-based hypercars can never change the general driving quality of society much; But super high performance cars will forever be indebted to McMurtry Spéirling’s amazing technical achievement!
Llumar color protection sheet with automatic color repair capability
Body scratches, paint peeling and car body wear are among the things that all drivers have to deal with. However, the paint protection sheet made by Llumar can completely put an end to this problem!
Thanks to its unique adhesives that remain liquid even after application, this extraordinary sheet can automatically repair scratches and restore its original condition!
It only takes a few minutes, and after that, any scratches, chips, or other physical damage will be completely removed and the car’s paint will be completely restored.
Of course, this color is not immortal! Because as soon as the bottom metal layer of this sheet is damaged, its protective effect will be lost. Nevertheless, the performance of this innovative system in protecting the color of the car is unrivaled and amazing.
Llumar paint protection system can also be purchased commercially in some markets around the world. However, the seller must find the right amount of protective material for each car model by accessing the company’s database.
This protective sheet is especially suitable for owners of luxury and expensive cars; Because repairing the smallest scratch of these cars will impose a very heavy cost on the driver.
At the same time, everyone can get this thin and very practical sheet to protect their car’s paint.
WayRay augmented reality HUD display
Heads-up displays are a good way to get information about the route, speed and other driving parameters without taking your eyes off the road.
With the heavy investment received from Hyundai and Porsche, WayRay is now one of the most influential players in the HUD display market. However, the company’s main plan is to build augmented reality (AR) screens in the future.
In this way, WayRay can display information such as places of interest on the route, discounts of different stores or even different advertisements on the driver’s windshield and create an important evolution in the driver’s information system.
The WayRay company claimed that the display of augmented reality ads is more intended for taxis and will be useful for both drivers and passengers; Because you can pay part of the travel expenses by watching these ads!
Of course, the advertising use of iK screens can cause dissatisfaction among drivers. However, other features such as displaying important points of the route or navigation can satisfy most people.
Of course, like all other advanced automotive technologies, we have to wait and see when the original design of WayRay reaches commercial production and is actually installed on cars!
BMW color changing panels
BMW’s E Ink panels, unveiled at CES 2022, give cars the ability to instantly change color and have the potential to revolutionize the future of the automotive industry.
Of course, at that time, these panels only changed color in the range of black, white and gray and were not able to use other colors.
The most important advantage mentioned for these panels is the management of energy consumption in different temperature conditions. For example, on hot days, the color of the car can be changed to white to dissipate heat and make the car cabin cooler. On the other hand, on cold days, you can absorb more heat and make the cabin warmer by choosing black color!
Since the unveiling of these revolutionary panels, BMW engineers have been working on finding different uses for them. In this regard, one of the officials of this company has claimed that several internal teams have been researching the feasibility of using these panels inside the machine’s cabin.
This technology is now able to use color and there is no need to use black, white and gray colors in it. In addition, BMW has decided to make it possible to spray these smart colors on the body of the car so that its use does not require the installation of new panels.
Of course, a large part of the use of these BMW panels has not been fully discovered yet. However, it seems that we will see these panels used in the automotive industry sooner than we expect.
Burton’s hypercar that uses plastic waste as fuel!
Renowned Italian design brand Bertone has just been acquired by new investors. Under this new ownership, at the end of 2022, Bertone unveiled an amazing hypercar called the GB110, which has a very attractive and aggressive design and delivers 1,100 horsepower.
However, the most important thing about this hypercar, which is produced in a very limited edition, is its use of plastic waste as fuel!
The implementation of this stunning automotive technology is made possible through Bertone’s collaboration with Select Fuel. Based on this technology, the car engine is designed in such a way that it will be able to use low carbon fuel.
This technology has been introduced as an alternative to electric cars, which is able to keep internal combustion cars alive and reduce the pollution of these cars.
In this way, Select Fuel provides the necessary fuel for the operation of this car by converting plastic waste into petrochemical raw products.
Of course, Bertone has big goals in mind for his plan and plans to provide the possibility of using these fuels in all gasoline and diesel cars; Because in this way, plastic waste can be transformed from an environmental threat to a very key element!
Of course, this design is still being developed in very small dimensions and Burton is one of the first brands to follow this idea. Therefore, it seems that there is a long time left until the commercialization of this revolutionary technology.
Michelin airless tires
Unlike many key technologies in the automotive industry that have undergone extensive changes over time, car tires are still working in their original form!
The use of air-filled tubes in car tires exposes them to punctures, breakdowns and other physical defects. For this reason, the well-known Michelin company has recently unveiled airless tires that will not have these defects.
Of course, several different brands are currently developing this attractive automotive technology. However, Michelin is the only company that has built and tested a real example of these tires.
The first tests of these tires were done in early 2023; where the tires of a number of DHL postal vehicles were replaced with Michelin deflated ones.
The purpose of this work was to collect data by Michelin so that complete quality tests can be performed on them before mass release to the market.
The unique design of the internal texture of these tires, along with the use of plastic reinforced by glass fibers, has made these Michelin tires able to pass over sharp objects without the risk of a puncture.
Michelin has claimed that the airless tire technology is almost ready for general use in private cars and high speed tests have been done on these products so that their durability can be approved by the authorities of different countries.
At the same time, it is still not clear exactly when we will see these tires in the market.
BYD spring suspension system
BYD is one of the prominent companies that has unveiled its latest automotive technology and can have a significant impact on the future of the automotive industry.
This Chinese company has succeeded in developing a fully adjustable suspension system that gives the driver a lot of freedom of action, and as it appears from its launch video, it is able to jump cars off the ground or move on three wheels!
Of course, the applications of this technology are much more important in reality!
The possibility of adjusting the suspension system of the car allows the driver to lower the risk of damage to the different implementations of the car by increasing the height of the car in the paths full of obstacles.
Of course, this technology is currently available to custom cars. However, BYD can be the first brand to bring this suspension system to city cars and make it available to drivers.
On the other hand, the drivers of SUVs can use this technology to reduce the height of their car, while having off-road capabilities, they can also optimize the engine performance.
On the other hand, the ability to drive with three wheels is another attractive feature that can be of great help to the driver in case of a flat tire.
BYD has announced that it will use its amazing hydraulic suspension system for the first time in the Yangwang U8 SUV. However, this Chinese company apparently has no plans to release this suspension system in other parts of the world!
Fisker solar panel on the roof of cars
If Fisker’s calculations are correct, the solar panels used in the Fisker Ocean SUV will make it the most efficient car in the history of the automotive industry!
Fisker claimed that in solar areas, this car is able to travel about 2400 km more than normal cars every year thanks to being equipped with solar panels! Of course, this amount is just the beginning and it can be expected to increase in the future.
According to available reports, an American driver drives an average of 28,000 kilometers per year. In this way, by using Fisker solar panels, you can achieve about ten percent more efficiency.
Of course, it is not bad to know that there have been many attempts to use solar panels in commercial cars, most of which have led to failure.
Therefore, if Fisker intends to really make a change in the automotive industry, it must provide a system that is more optimized than its competitors and overcome the existing challenges.
At the same time, if this company is actually able to provide what it claims, we can hope that we will soon see the widespread use of solar panel technology in electric cars.
