For those to which the manufacturer OSC find you unknown, among whom I include myself, after some documentation I can say that a car Builder is Latvian off-road. The range of models of CSOs, known as OSCar, is reduced. Two models, the OSCar 03 and OSCar 24 h. Although model that brings us today here is that now it is under development, the OSCar eO. We went from an electric circuit to one track.
The OSCar eO happens to be the first electric vehicle of raiding. An electric model of extended range that generates electricity from a NISSAN engine. This energy is stored in batteries, Chinese manufacturer Winston Battery is working with the team, to subsequently feed to two electric motors of 180 kW responsible for traction. The maximum speed which can develop the OSCar eO is 140 km/h while the energy stored in batteries would travel 150 km maximum demand, more than 300 in situations more simple such as the links.
If all this were not a little challenge for a very complicated task as the participate in the tougher test in the world, the OSCar eO has an auto-regenerativos shock absorbers, which are able to capture the energy which the irregularities of the road. The objective of the Team Latvia and OSCar eO is the participation in the 2012 Dakar.
Take this opportunity to make a short summary of what makes CSO. Its two models, the first is a model that we have already been seen in the Dakar, more specifically in the 2007 Edition. El 03 is the top of the range of CSOs model. Lurking beneath its body is a tubular chassis and a 7 litre of origin GM, the LS7 V8 engine. The second model, the OSCar 24 h, is a model with aspect of Ford Fiesta to type raid of 24-hour endurance racing. the main virtues of this small model are the engine of Nissan origin of 3.5 litres and a low weight of only 1,180 kilograms.
