The Russian company e-AUTO has placed an order with the German press manufacturer DIEFFENBACHER for 2 manufacturing lines for the production of fiber-reinforced plastic components.
The e-car is a highly innovative hybrid car with a power-generating unit driven by petrol or natural gas and traction electric motors. Instead of a battery there are super-capacitors, which accumulate the energy generated while braking and which are then released to the e-motors on demand. The whole car body is made of a special plastics material, a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic called LFTD. In place of fiberglass basalt fibers will be used in the e-car body components.
MAGNA STEYR is the engineering partner of e-AUTO Company. The e-car project enjoys priority status in Russia with Mikhail Prokhorov, Russian billionaire, being the investor of the project, and Russia’s Prime Minister Putin test-driving the innovative car V. Mr. Andrey Biryukov ,Director General of e-AUTO and Co-Investor points out that “production of all major components will be located in Russia based on the inventions of Russian engineers applying leading technologies and using the most advanced equipment.”
