2011 Smart Forvision Concept

We will see the Smart Forvision Concept at the upcoming 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. The futuristic car with technologies relating to energy efficiency, lightweight design and temperature management. Hope the  Smart Forvision Concept as future hybrid vehicle.

Smart Forvision Concept electric mobility uses new technologies in the automotive sector. Thanks to battery-electric the car can save energy.


2011 Smart Forvision Concept uses materials in the areas of insulation, reflection, lightweight design and energy management. In addition to transparent organic solar cells, transparent and energy-saving light-emitting diodes and infrared-reflective films and coatings, high-performance foams are used for insulation against cold and heat.

Smart Forvision Concept is equipped with transparent eye-catching feature at roof. Transparent solar cells covering the entire roof surface are the technology also generates energy. The roof of Smart Forvision Concept is like sandwich.

It is unique, the transparent dyes of the solar cells are light-activated. Even in diffused light and poor light conditions they generate enough energy to power the multimedia components and the three fans that assist with climate management in the vehicle interior. If the vehicle is standing in the sun the ventilation is permanently operated with the help of these solar cells, keeping the Smart Forvision Concept cool. This new photovoltaic technology opens up further efficiency potential and the energy generated can be used for further applications in the Smart Forvision Concept.


While in interior there are transparent OLEDs (organic light-emitting diodes) illuminate the vehicle interior when the door is opened or a button pressed. Thanks to a free choice of colours the new OLEDs on Smart Forvision Concept do not only offer more design freedom, they also consume less than half as much energy as conventional energy-saving lamps.
