Located at the Geneva motor show this, Rinderknecht in a video showing how to design a car company could keep it running smoothly without any problems. Seen diving car and then resurface the road to advance to the encyclopedia. Operation of the car was spelled out easily, because for this function does not dive and take just one button.
Rinspeed The Swiss-made cars this is the first claimed although previously had a lot of cars with similar design that also can go in the water. sQuba, the name of the car, the advantage is on the use of modern technology and the car had been following with the occupants could dive to the depths.
On previous cars also entered the car amphibious species, such as Climber/ALPHA, Citroen DS made in 1960, and Chrysler Labarron made in the era of the 70s, is still a new car yet has the advantages such as what is offered by the sQuba. This excess is, capable of diving, fuel efficient, and lighter because although some of its frame is made of steel, but most components made of carbon fiber material.
"It makes the lightest and the sQuba car that has applied nanotechnology," said Rinderknecht.
sQuba also became the first car from the sedan class. Design framed door open, using the electric motor, two propellers and two jet engines escapement, thus allowing these cars can travel long distances. This car also claimed to be superior because both are designed not produce emissions when running on land and at sea. This car is because energy is supplied from a lithium-ion battery type.
"We draw from a dream with the title of the James Bond film The Spy Who Loved the movie Me, which was released in 1977. Seeing this film, Rinspeed amazed and then dreamed about it. But admittedly, very different from the design. James Bond original vehicle shape is a closed sedan with a wing on the right and left, while not Rinspeed design.
In the sQuba, the driver of this vehicle must come diving with the car and come to feel the chill of the water. For respiration in the vehicle cabin has provided devices and regulating oxygen diving equipment which is automatically removed from the cabin. This is always guaranteed fresh air with no record of such a leak.
The concept of sQuba is capable of diving up to 10 meters is going to make it a candidate for a military vehicle. Simply drive it with a free, anyone can use this car for smuggling or spying. The car also offered superior because it can maneuver freely. But that does not mean like a fish that can be raced. There are still many limitations which, according to Rinspeed's team is a challenge.
This car is also said to be the incarnation of the race cars are made in special techniques Esoro facilities in Switzerland. In the first stage done is to remove combustion engine and replaced by three electric motors machine. Three engines are all placed in the rear. One for driving while on the ground and the other two are used to move through the water.
Engines are also supported by two staff Seabob jet is in front. These vehicles are used for breathing by utilizing lap time through HS Genion (for opening and closing functions of exit and entry of water). This specially designed jet with nano-carbon materials.
When landing, the sQuba can be like an aquarium. It is suggested that after the dive, the vehicle door is opened so that water in vehicle out. Rinderknecht says the sedan design intent is open because if there is an emergency, passengers do not bother to get out of the car. But this is not the main reason, he argued with considerable depth in the water charges will have great pressure and can not be arrested by the framework of regular saloon car like.
"If you want waterproof designed so that we can be free in the car, car design is no longer futuristic, but shaped like a turtle with a shell big enough," he explained
