28.5.2019 Frankfurt am Main. Larger field of view, less air resistance: The new Honda e has instead of the classic side mirrors on a standard camera system. For the first time in the small car class used technology offers decisive advantages in terms of Design, safety and aerodynamics.
Already in the prototype of the Honda e presented camera system replaces the conventional side-view mirror by small cameras that transmit your images in real time on two Six-inch monitor in the vehicle interior. These are positioned on the sides of the dashboard and allow the driver to ergonomic and natural angle of view.
The pioneering camera technology gives the Honda e is a modern, clear and distinctive Aesthetics. This also includes the continuous A-pillars and the flush-mounted, carry handles with extendable, which are also part of the standard equipment.
In contrast to conventional side protrude so reflect the cameras on the wheel arches and thus the width of the vehicle. The compact Format reduces the air resistance compared to normal mirrors to about 90 percent, which has a positive effect on efficiency and range. A further advantage is the reduced wind noise at higher speeds. In addition, the camera housing are shaped so that no water droplets on the lens can form and the water-repellent coating on the lens surface prevents the Accumulation of moisture.
The optimal positioning of the door mirror camera system offers several security advantages. The driver can choose in the settings between “normal view” and “wide-angle” view, and thus the field-of-view significantly greater extend than with conventional outside mirrors. Dead angle can be reduced in the normal view by about ten percent, and in the wide-angle view of about 50 percent. The reverse drive is facilitated by the display of auxiliary lines on the monitor in addition.
The brightness levels of the indoor monitor automatically adapt to the current lighting conditions. So in case of bad weather, low light conditions and at night excellent visibility without glare or reflections is guaranteed. The driver has a clearer and more direct view on the surrounding objects.
The new electric vehicle from Honda sets the benchmark for the brand in terms of Design and technology and is part of the strategy of the manufacturer, to repudiate all on the European market for new vehicles by 2025, electr. The Honda e will offer a range of more than 200 miles and a quick charge function, with which the vehicle can be charged within 30 minutes to 80 per cent.
In the interior of the Honda e provides a comfortable and spacious Lounge look and feel. To intuitive and customizable Dual-touch-screen interface, the passenger holds on-the-go networked. The sporty rear-wheel drive, the electric drivetrain and the high-performance battery ensure driving fun and dynamics.
The production version of the Honda e is still presented in this year. Interested persons can secure under www.honda.de already a purchase option.
