Nicknamed “fuzzy fiber” by its inventor at UDRI, Nano Adaptive Hybrid Fabric (NAHF-XTM) is the first tailored nanomaterial capable of being produced in sizes and quantities large enough to make them affordable and viable for large-scale commercial use. But in doing so, electrical and thermal conductivity inherent to metals is lost.

kWh lithium-ion battery pack (from the Jetta Hybrid), which stores the kinetic energy recovered from regenerative braking; assists in the starting phase of the fuel cell; and adds a dynamic boost to the maximum acceleration of the Golf SportWagen. The fuel cell and battery power an electric motor adapted from the e-Golf.

The tanks can store around five kilograms of hydrogen at a pressure of 700 bar—enough to drive more than 500 kilometers (310.7 mi) by a battery with a capacity of 8.8 kilowatt-hours, which is recharged by recuperation or alternatively from a power socket. The 12-volt battery is also mounted at the rear. liters (1.0

While they store a high amount of energy compared to the other designs, their power output is comparatively low. With minor changes to their exterior dimensions, they can be configured specifically for maximum power output, maximum energy or a combination of both, making them ideal for a plug-in hybrid vehicle. liters (1.0

Ultra-fast charging at 600 kW nearly doubles the most powerful public chargers for civilian drivers. The cars feature recyclable batteries and bodies made from linen and recycled carbon fiber from last year’s cars. Hankook tires use natural rubber and recycled fiber, and will be recycled after every race.
