The
SmILE (Small, Intelligent, Light and Efficient) project was aimed
at halving the energy consumption of a Renault Twingo with identical
driving performance and transport capacity. The consumption of 3.4
litres/100 km (69.2 mpg) in the NEDC (New European Driving Cycle)
achieved a cut in consumption of just under 50 %, the vehicle's emission
values were below the EURO III emission values and the driving performance
(acceleration, top speed and range) increased.
SmILE was developed for Greenpeace Germany, subcontracting for the
Swiss engine developer .
ESORO was responsible for reducing the aerodynamic drag (-34%), the weight
(-150KG) and the rolling resistance (-30%). |
