On 21 November, we took part in the Mobility Techdays in Lyon, co-exhibiting alongside IFPEN at this meeting of mobility experts, organised by CARA. This international event provided a great opportunity to showcase our innovations to decision-makers from all over the world.
The morning began with a visit to our stand by five groups of VIPs, followed by a cocktail reception to encourage discussion and networking. In the afternoon, a round table discussion on the subject of reindustrialisation gave rise to rich and constructive discussions. (Michael Haddad, Johan Engebratt, Jean-Baptiste Djebbari, Olivier Lluansi, Stéphane Lasfargue.)
These days were an opportunity to unveil a model of our future engine, specially designed for light mobility. This engine, which is still under development, is the result of close collaboration with IFP Energies Nouvelles. This ambitious project is financially supported by France 2030, a government programme to promote forward-looking innovations.
Small engine, big ambitions!
So what’s so special about this engine? Intended for light mobility, it has a power output of between 2 and 6 kW in its first phase. But it’s not just another motor: it’s a concentrate of durability and common sense. It has unique sustainability features, incorporating environmental considerations at every stage of its life cycle. We’ve thought of everything, from start to finish:
Eco-responsible design: no rare earths and optimised design to minimise waste.
Resource-efficient production: using processes that reduce energy consumption.
High energy efficiency : high-efficiency motors to limit energy loss.
Recyclable: materials selected for optimum end-of-life recycling.
Our engine has been designed to be sustainable in its design, production, use and end-of-life!
For those who are already dreaming of incorporating it into their fleet, you’ll have to wait a little longer: the engine will be available for sale at the end of 2025. In the meantime, don’t hesitate to contact us to prepare for optimal integration into your future projects.
Our engine attracted a lot of attention, particularly because of its ability to combine sustainability with excellent performance in terms of efficiency and compactness, all without using rare earths!
Thanks to Vincent Mallard, Antoine Cumin, Gaetano de Paola and Misa Milosavljevic. And thanks to theCara team, especially Magali Jouve and Loic LAGABBE for organising the event!
