Because we could all breathe a little better. 😮💨 engineering
One question remains at the end of life of an electric vehicle and that is: What do you do with the battery pack? Lately, firms have been coming up with some useful solutions such as Tesla who announced that it canhas become the first to recycle an EV battery using 100% reused materials.
However, much research and development still need to be undertaken before these processes can become economically viable and common. Now, Hyundai has come up with a new idea for recycling an electric vehicle. In a new promo video, Hyundai's engineers take an all-electric crossover Ioniq 5 and transform it into a large air purifier. The result is a beast of an air purifier with a cylindrical housing slightly larger than the 20-inch alloy wheel that is used for the top of the device's case.
The core of the device consists of a cabin air filter and a cooling fan that is controlled through an infotainment touchscreen mounted to the housing. True to its original form, the Ioniq 5's emblem can be seen on the case, supported by the electric vehicle's pixelated LED taillamps and the digital instrument cluster readout.
