There NASCAR gets electrified with the arrival of his first EV racing car in Chicago. The prototype was born from the collaboration with Chevrolet, Ford, Toyota and ABB and is intended for “oval” racesThe project aims to demonstrate the potential of electric car racing and to evaluate the interest of the fans towards this new category.
1,360 HP Electric Nascar
The prototype of the electric racing car is based on the classic Nascar frameadapted to integrate electric technology and features a body similar to a crossover.
Made with sustainable materials, such as composite based on linenis equipped with three electric motors which offer all-wheel drive and a power of approximately 1,360 HP. Equipped with a 78 kWh batterythe system supports energy regeneration during braking. The power is distributed across all four tires Goodyear Racing Eagle.
According to these technical data theElectric NASCAR car speeds up twice as fast faster than a traditional stock car, but is slightly slower in the corners due to the greater weight. In any case the main fundamental difference is the lack of rhombus iconic of a Nascar car.
Electric Nascar Championship
The realization of the prototype anticipates the creation of a possible Nascar championship with electric racing cars.
In fact, the introduction of the electric vehicle is part of a plan to promote the sustainabilitywith the aim of reducing carbon emissions and using sustainable fuel and 100% renewable electricity by 2028. NASCAR is also exploring other green technologies, such as hydrogen car.
