The technologies of Volkswagen XL1 will go into production cars

At the Geneva Motor Show Volkswagen officially launched the production version of the Volkswagen XL1 , the more economical production car in the world with an average fuel consumption of just 0.9 litres/100 km, 50 km electric range with a 10-liter tank, the Volkswagen XL1 has a range of more than 500 km, with initial production of only 50 cars.

But, as we all understand the technology that has more of the car will pass in a decade in most company cars. This came to confirm and the chief engineer of the car through interview, Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg to predict that the future is really a plug-in hybrid vehicles and we should all get used to them because they emit lower emissions while still allowing them to travel long distances without worrying about electric range.

The lessons learned from the Volkswagen XL1 come to save the internal combustion engine, and while we admire the ability of electric vehicles, believes that no one wants to see their gasoline to disappear completely.

Even more interesting, however, is that the Volkswagen XL1 has side mirrors and cameras will be able to eliminate blind spots. The Volkswagen XL1 is a testing ground for this technology in production cars as well improve aerodynamic and if the cameras prove successful experiment in real situations, the mirrors could be slowly disappearing.

Finally, all of these technologies and the use of carbon in cars will not increase the price of cars.
