The Quant-FE by nanoFlowcell

Undeniably powerful, undeniably environmentally conscious. These two expressions are perhaps the best description of this car. As the topic suggests, this car uses the nanoFlowcell technology. The naming is extremely clever. The 'F' and 'E' in the cars name stand for 'Flow' and 'Evolution'. Flow signifies that this car makes use of the flow cell tech and evolution states that this car has evolved the level of automobiles to an entire new level. So here is a picture of how the car looks.

  So what is this flow technology that I just mentioned? The flow tech is a kind of evolution in the batteries. Our cell phones, cameras and most equipment work on the Lithium ion battery. As efficient as this type of battery may be, when it comes to powering vehicles it fails. It goes on something called a thermal runway. This means that soon on continuous use of the battery it will get overheated and will ultimately melt down. So how to avoid this problem? Here comes the flow technology. The outstanding feature of the flow cell is that it is powered by a liquid electrolyte which is extremely stable. It barely degrades and is free from the "memory effect" both in charge capacity and regeneration. Once the electrolytic fluid is discharged, it can be charged again without any loss in the power capacity of the car. That means 100 liters of used electrolyte can be recharged and converted into 100 liters of ionically concentrated solution and thus power the car again. The company is still looking into recharging stations but has promised that they will be available soon.

So that means that the FE is powered by this amazing battery making it powerful and environmentally safe. Now an amazing feature that this car introduces into a design of the cars is the WOOD APPLICATION: CAPACITIVE SWITCHES WITH SENSORFLOW TECHNOLOGY ON GENUINE WOOD. The new SENSORFLOW technology creates a visual highlight of a type not seen in the automotive controls. At first we see only the pure, smooth surface of natural ash; however on switching on the vehicle, the capacitive switch controls become visible through the wood. Likewise shining through the wood are the bands of blue light that represent the flow of nanoFlowcell. The wood is so finely cut that light finger pressure on the sensorFlow icon is all it takes to trigger the command. With this innovation, the company is able to create a direct linkage to digital control with the simple touch of a finger on a sustainable material like wood. In addition its futuristic looking panel adds to the entire ambience of the car. Here is a look.

Further the nano flow tank in the back is a source of continuous energy till the car runs out of charge of the electrolytic fluid. Complemented by powerful motors this car is truly an environmental friendly beast. This car perhaps will change the course of sports cars and move the automobile industry towards a more eco-friendly future. Here are some other photos of this car.

The FFZero-1

In Jan 2016 Faraday future disclosed the FFZero 1 concept car. The company said that it set out to create a car which will provide a driver experience like none other. The FFZero 1 is a car that will help them achieve this goal. The company claims that the car will have a 1000 horsepower, 0-60 time under three seconds and a top speed over 200 mph. No doubt these are just theoretical numbers but Faraday future claims that it will achieve this in couple of years. The car looks something like this:

                            
The exterior of this car has a glass roof through which we can see the carbon fiber interior, the steering onto which we can attach our smartphones. Besides the stunning exterior and interior of the car, it is also supposed to have a kind of "sixth-sense". The car will have a 'UI'
based tech which involves interaction with the driver to give him a better driving experience.
One more brilliant feature that this car will probably have is its zero-gravity driving experience. Its structure will be such that the driver will reduced stress even at high speeds.
The car will also have a Halo Safety system, a system that supports the driver's neck and head along with a helmet that will not only provide you with oxygen and water, but also constantly check your body's bio-activity. 
However notice that this car is more of a racing car than a car which we will use in our day to day lives. Faraday future explains this little thing as well. They propose a technology by the name Variable Platform Architecture(VPA). This revolutionary platform architecture will change the entire viewpoint about the shape of the car. The company says that VPA  will basically operate on 'strings' of battery. Their battery will be a powerful but compact powerhouse which will store more juice in it than it will appear to hold. The company will design its base on battery blocks attached in groups of six. These blocks will then form strings. Adding or removing even one of them will enable us to change the way the car looks. So essentially the car can become a sedan, a compact car etc. the possibilities are limitless. This video shows the revolutionary VPA technology. The VPA will allow Faraday Future to execute models more efficiently than any other car company in the world. Since the company will be able to create custom designs and execute those designs efficiently, Faraday future may dominate the electronic vehicle market( EV market).
