Sina auto inquiry in 2009, Volvo (Volvo) Motor Company introduced the new S60 concept car, once again demonstrated to the world in luxury design and top-level security of the leader. S60 breakthrough concept car design to bring people to the visual power of the passion, the drive will also be better than the past performance of any one of Volvo cars. Equipment to prevent the car by security technology can help people drive more safely.
Volvo luxury car design breakthrough
S60 concept through design, Volvo Car Corporation to display a wide range of compelling new ideas, indicating that the design development of products in the process of DNA is up to a new level.
Interior design is full of dreamy passion, amazing, no doubt the best Volvo ever created a unique interior. This is mainly due to the brand by the famous Swedish Orrefors crystal by hand to create the floating crystal center console. It is like a soft and calm as the waves from the instrument panel has been floated to the rear seat backrest, the falls together as if from under the dashboard and through the car down the middle. Crystal plate spent part Article decorative light aluminum frame, the rubber pad and pad. Crystal can make use of the flash light source hidden to be adjusted to match with the drivers mood. ? Creativity and a perfect fusion of function
Although the crystal console free of material transmission of the artistic atmosphere, but the function it has in every detail to carry out a thorough consideration.
Crystal console on the dashboard above the height of the portfolio formed a navigation screen.
Below, four knob from elegant crystal plate in the groove out Yaguang. The middle of the remote control can be removed.
File under a new use of a flexible design. In the flat position, the automatic transmission vehicles. If the driver wants to shift manually, you can turn to head-up position under file. Shift also has a bar next to one of the engine start / stop button and the car brakes.
Has been extended to the rear of the center console back, there are two drinks brackets, when necessary, off gracefully.
Volvo Cars to focus on ergonomics and safety. Owing to the combination of instrumentation and navigation screen layout at the same height, driver only can be easily in the horizontal scanning switch between sources of information. Another example is when the engine start and stop control buttons used are close to file under, and only a few centimeters from each other. ? To the driver of the car-centered environment
The entire driving environment is designed to ensure that the vision to provide comprehensive and convenient control. Instrument reasonable and convenient control for the driver support.
Combination of instrument design shape like a Hornet, round Speedometer is the body, on both sides of the digital instruments provide all other information, constitute the two wings. Speedometer is designed to look three-dimensional spiral glass. Low at the time of the recent figures from the eyes; as the car accelerated, the speed appears to show more and more distant. The idea is to accelerate the speed odometer forward momentum to deal with to provide a visual reminder. A number of sub-meter layer to hide the gap between all levels to improve the cars air vents. ? Head-up display to display security information
In the combination of the above instruments, the driver can be on the windshield glass was the prevention of head-up display system provides security information and alerts. ? Slim leather seat
Seat using soft yellow leather and contrast stitching. The lower part of the seat and console and the threshold of connectivity, which means that seats are not actual contact with the floor. Seat belts and the handrails are integrated into the seat, the use of a slight asymmetry in the new design. The first half of the door a true golden birch veneer, with the Swedish coast and war saline wooden pier and the sun is a color of driftwood. ? Volvo luxury car classic design style
S60 concept car in the front, marked increase of iron in the trapezoidal grille shine naturally. DNA of two lights on both sides highlighted in the front grille of upright posture, emphasized the hood of the V-shape. Tilted upward extension of the former headlamps, carved into the shape of a powerful engine cover, and the next intake of the inverted trapezoidal to form a very expressive face before.
The unique design of headlamps
Traveling at night, the lights before the light from high-performance LED headlights reflected in each headlight, the light will be a sculpture, a provider of much light, a nearly light, the performance of two micro-sailing are side by side while.
Two-wave shape of the side body lines
From the side view, smooth coupe-style lines, the window with the outline of a new side of the shoulder line, constitute a pair of soft double-wave line. The wavy line of the previous extension to the rear of the headlamps all the way, not only added a passion, but also with the body surface and traditional costumes and ornaments matched. 20-inch seven-spoke wheels are specially designed. Brake caliper and the bronze to match the body color is.
Leading preventive safety technology
Volvo S60 concept on board to prevent the introduction of a new generation of security technology: fully automatic braking function with collision warning systems (including pedestrian detection), and auxiliary functions in line with the adaptive cruise control system. These innovative technologies fitted to the vehicle as the eyes and the brains to help towards the design of Volvo cars collision will not happen in a big step forward along the long-term objectives. Volvos 2020 goal is to take the Volvo car can be completely avoided casualties. Volvo Car Corporation, the security expert Thomas(Thomas Broberg) said: So far, our efforts are focused in helping drivers avoid collisions with other cars on. Now we are in a promotion of pedestrian safety The new system represents a major step forward. The new sensor technology to make 50% to 100% brake power brake power possible. As far as we know, we have no competitors in this regard, a case in progress.
With fully automatic braking function of the collision warning system (including pedestrian detection)
The system uses a very precise warning system, namely, head-up displays visual warnings. In order to be able to immediately respond to arouse the drivers intuitive, visual warning is designed like a car brake lights before it. If the driver fails to respond to the warning, the system to determine an imminent collision, the car will automatically activate automatic braking effort. Take the initiative to activate the brakes need to have radar and cameras to the objects at the same time to confirm.
Volvos objective is to this new technology can help drivers and pedestrians in the speed of the relative velocity of less than 20 km / h and the relative vehicle speed is less than 25 km / h, you can completely avoid a collision. If the relative velocity is higher than 20-25 km / h, will be to reduce the collision speed of 20 km / hr. Objective is to reduce the collision speed and reduce the damage caused by the collision. In a variety of cruise speed can be automatically and start the collision warning, when the inevitable collision may increase 100% under the full force of automatic braking.
With fully automatic braking function and pedestrian collision detection alert system built in the former by the grille of a new dual-mode radar, in-vehicle rear-view mirror in front of the camera and the central controller. Continuous monitoring of radar and video cameras before the road. The task of radar detection and measurement of distance between objects. Camera function is to determine the type of object. Its function is to stop the car in front or in vehicles to respond. As a result of the latest radar, widening the scope of the probe, the device also can detect patterns of pedestrian movement. Volvo Cars has developed the technology for a decade, in many different countries for several years the road test. In the final system design must consider the traffic scenario, traffic and climate and other factors. Volvo also uses these tests to obtain information on advanced computer simulation in different scenarios to test and verify system.
Accessibility in line with the adaptive cruise control system
This is an upgraded system, adaptive cruise control, in the 0-200 km / h speed range of between activated by radar sensors in the grille days down the inside of the vehicle in front and measure the distance with it, the system automatically adjusts speed to maintain distance from the vehicle in front. The system can improve the driving comfort, and to further adapt to different driving styles.
Environmental protection and efficient engine GTDi
S60 concept car of choice is a 1.6-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, an efficient use of GTDi (gasoline turbocharged direct injection) technology, the maximum power of 180 hp (134 kW). Combined with a series of other technical measures can reduce carbon dioxide emissions to 119 grams per kilometer, fuel consumption of 5.0 liters / 100 km. In a traditional gasoline engine, the fuel is sprayed into the intake manifold in front of the intake pipe. The use of direct injection engine technology is the high pressure fuel directly injected into the combustion chamber. This technology can improve the air flow and optimize oil and gas mixture to increase the resistance of non-controlled combustion, thereby enhancing the output power and lower fuel consumption. GTDi turbocharger technology and a combination of performance can be maintained at the same time reduce the engine emissions, fuel consumption and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by about 20%.
In addition to GTDi technology, Volvo S60 concept car also brings together the following technical measures to enable the carbon dioxide emissions down to 119 grams / km:
Stratified combustion. Combustion chamber is designed to ensure that can be formed around the spark plug by the optimization of air and fuel mixture consisting of aerosol layers, the middle order and separated by the pure air. This engine will be excessive in the air under the conditions of operation, thereby reducing fuel consumption.
Start / stop function, when the car park when the engine shut down automatically.
Powershift dual-clutch gearbox. Because there is no interruption of torque transmission, shift quickly and improve efficiency.
Electric Power Steering (EPAS). The principle of electric power agencies and the steering system is rack-phase motors directly replace the traditional hydraulic pump.
DRIVe models. So that drivers can be a kind of economic model limit the choice of a number of electrical and mechanical system to reduce fuel consumption. Such as air conditioning, cruise control or automatic transmission shift settings.
Tailgate grill. Required less cooling air flow can be shut down to reduce the air resistance grid.
Toe-boards, vehicles.
Body using lightweight materials.
