Introducing the Revolutionary New EV: Experience Unmatched Technology and Performance – All the Details Inside!

Italdesign has unveiled a striking new electric vehicle concept called Quintessenza.

This vehicle pushes boundaries with exciting features like in-wheel motors, smartphone control, and impressive display projections for navigation.

As reported by InsideEVs, it’s one of the first to feature Sonic.1 in-wheel electric motors, along with high-performance brakes from Slovenia’s Elaphe. While these motors add 88 pounds to each wheel, they have surprising advantages.

The front motors deliver 300 kilowatts each, while the rear ones achieve 500 kilowatts, providing a combined total of 1,600 kilowatts (or 2,145 horsepower). Italdesign estimates the Quintessenza can go from zero to 62 miles per hour in just under 2.2 seconds, nearly matching Formula E speeds.

This innovative motor system allows for independent wheel control that’s 20 times faster than conventional drivetrains. This boosts performance, safety, and comfort. Since much of the technology is built into the wheels, there is ample space for a large battery. It currently features a 150-kilowatt battery, which is expected to offer up to 466 miles of range.

The in-wheel motors could enhance the vehicle’s range by 20% and cut production costs by a similar amount, thanks to their efficient design. Elaphe claims these motors provide 95% battery-to-wheel efficiency. For comparison, standard EVs range from 87% to 91%, while traditional combustion engines only achieve 16% to 25% efficiency.

Another sleek feature of the Quintessenza is its smartphone-based interface. This system displays essential driving data like speed, turn signals, and battery status. Drivers can customize settings directly from their smartphones, making it easy for anyone to set up their preferences.

According to Italdesign, the Quintessenza even offers immersive projections that wrap around the interior, giving passengers a constant flow of information about location and destination.

This vehicle is designed for both performance and practicality, with adjustable wheel clearance that allows for adventure on various terrains. Drivers can feel the road through a combination of vibrations and audio feedback, enhancing the driving experience.

If the glass roof doesn’t bring enough of the outdoors inside, you can park in nature, remove the rear canopy, drop the tailgate, and rotate the back seats to take in the scenery.

While Quintessenza is still a concept, it showcases the potential for efficiency, functionality, and a greater connection to nature—all while using eco-friendly energy to minimize environmental impact.
