GNeCar : CRMT's "petite" dual-fuel hybrid vehicle
THE CUSTOMER'S PROBLEM What happens when manufacturers, students and teachers are part of the same technological network? You create opportunities in a much more dynamic automotive industry! Yet, it is still necessary to identify the right tools and ways to give teaching a meaning in this context.
CRMT'S SOLUTION By making this small dual-fuel hybrid vehicle available, CRMT encourages technological development and stimulates students' creativity with a practical case study.
WHAT'S MORE "GNeCAR" is the name given to the Volpe, when it was made available to the French national education institution. Volpe is a small electric car reminiscent of the Renault Twizy, for which the technical choices are, however, very different: the Volpe has a small electricity generator that runs on CNG (natural gas) or gasoline. The bi-fuel system, as well as the electric drive train were produced by CRMT (2010).
