The Trabant nT is a concept vehicle that was presented at the IAA in 2009 . The abbreviation "nT" stands for "newTrabi".
history
The story began at the model car manufacturer Herpa . For the 50th birthday of the " Trabant " in 2007, it was decided to develop a 1:10 scale model of a new Trabant. This model was presented in 2007 at the IAA under the name "newTrabi". In this context, there was a survey at the fair. 94% of the 12,000 respondents were in favor of a new version of the car in a modern form.
Thereupon the IndiKar Individual Karosseriebau GmbH from Wilkau-Haßlau developed a concept vehicle together with the designer Nils Poschwatta, which was presented at the IAA in 2009 under the name "Trabant nT". However, the subsequent search for investors failed, so that the vehicle was never mass-produced.
technology
The Trabant nT is driven by a central asynchronous motor with an output of 47 kW. The motor draws its energy from a lithium-ion battery . The charging time is approx. 8 hours with 230 V and approx. 2 hours with 400 V. The maximum range is 160 km. In addition, the vehicle has a solar roof with an area of 1.8 m², which provides approx. 120 watts to support ventilation and other external consumers. The maximum speed is 130 km / h. The vehicle has 4 + 1 seats (a child seat in the middle). The payload may be 400 kg.
design
The design was developed by Nils Poschwatta and should on the one hand be reminiscent of the Trabant P 601 Universal and on the other hand it should also look modern.
