The Roding Automobile GmbH is a company founded in 2008, technology companies, specializing in the development and production of lightweight structures made of CFRP and a small volume manufacturers of carbon-lightweight sports car Roding Roadster.

history

The founders of Roding Automobile met in the TUfast TU Munich and Formula Student Germany racing team . In 2007 the team won first place in the Engineering Design Award. Immediately after the company was founded, the development of the Roding Roadster began.

In 2009 a concept study of the Roding Roadster was presented to the world at the IAA . In 2011, Roding Automobile won the Bavarian Founder's Prize in the concept category . After the final test drives at the Nürburgring and a redesign, series production of the Roding Roadster began in January 2012. The Roding Roadster 23 celebrated its world premiere in 2012 at the Geneva Motor Show . The first vehicle in the start edition, which was limited to 23 units, was delivered in May of the same year.

In the same year, a research vehicle with battery-electric drive was developed on behalf of Siemens Corporate Technologies.

Development projects

Roding Roadster

The Roding Roadster is a two-seater roadster with a 6-cylinder turbo mid-engine from BMW and has a carbon fiber hybrid chassis with a modular structure and a load-bearing CFRP monocoque . The front and rear end are made of a carbon-aluminum hybrid construction. The special series Roding Roadster 23 in carbon fiber is limited to 23 pieces.

Roding Roadster Electric

The Roding Roadster Electric is a research vehicle with battery-electric drive that was developed on behalf of Siemens Corporate Technologies. The vehicle has two wheel hub motors on the rear axle. This means that 70% of the braking energy can be recovered . The braking force is actively shifted between the friction brake on the front axle and the purely electric brake on the rear axle.

Roding City eTaxi

The CITY eTAXI of Adaptive City Mobility (ACM) was developed as part of the IKT-EMII (ITK for Electromobility) funding project. The lightweight e-taxi was designed according to the EC vehicle class L7E - 450 kg maximum weight without battery system and accessories. A minivan-like example was created in 2015.

Sono Sion

The Sono Sion is a solar car that is supposed to run on a battery and with 330 solar cells and thus partially charges itself. Roding Automobile developed and built two non-street-legal functional prototypes in minivan form with a self-supporting plastic body on behalf of and according to specifications from Sono Motors from Munich .

A-pillar in braiding technique

  • A-pillar as a CFRP hollow profile that is structurally integrated into the CFRP passenger cell.
  • Visible structural component,
  • Component design suitable for fiber composites for lightweight construction optimization (weight: 5.5 kg)
