The Ford Evos is a vehicle from the car manufacturer Ford that was presented at the 2011 International Motor Show, but will not go into production. Rather, it should offer an outlook on future Ford design, in particular on the next model generation of the Ford Mondeo . The model was developed by Vercarmodel Saro in Orbassano .

Vehicle characteristics

This vehicle is a four-door, four-seat coupé , which was designed by J Mays as a further development from "Kinetic Design". Like the previous Ford Iosis study, the vehicle has gullwing doors hinged in opposite directions and no B-pillar. The plug-in hybrid is driven either by a gasoline or an electric motor, and the energy is stored in a lithium-ion battery developed by Ford . The drive is not a study, it was taken over from the Ford C-MAX Energi, which went into series production in 2013 . The gasoline engine is only used when the maximum speed of 75 km / h for electric operation is exceeded or the stored electricity for the electric motor is running out. The total range of the drive concept is over 800 kilometers.

The full-LED headlights, which will also be available on Ford production vehicles in the future, are kept very flat and thus appear slit-shaped, the radiator grille is trapezoidal and not drawn down as far as on the current Ford models. Wide-flared wheel arches give the vehicle a very sporty impression. At the rear of the car there is a continuous strip of taillights, including a centrally positioned, likewise trapezoidal exhaust pipe and a large, silver-colored diffuser .

There are four bucket seats in the interior and the fittings are completely digital. At higher speeds, less important information is automatically hidden to reduce the risk of distraction. The playlist of the audio system, as well as settings for the air conditioning, seat position and even the desired coordination of steering, chassis and transmission should be set fully automatically to the driver via cloud access. The electronics use the seats to determine the driver's pulse rate while driving and adjust the car to its physical condition; special filter systems also protect the occupants from unclean air.
