Hiriko folding electric car headed for production

Posted on | January 28, 2012 | No Comments

The Hiriko folding electric car is set to be launched this week before going into production next year.

An electric car prototype that folds into itself to save parking space, and is powered by four in-wheel motors, will be launched tomorrow (Tuesday, January 24) by José Manuel Barroso, president of the European Commission, in Brussels.

The two-seat Hiriko, tipped to receive endorsement from EU leaders at its launch, is the result of a partnership of Basque businesses, the Spanish government and the US’s renowned MIT Media Lab. The tiny bubble car is tipped to go into production in Spain next year.

Each wheel is independently driven and steered by “robot” in-wheel electric motors making for extra manoeuvrability, while the rear of the capsule-like city car can slip under the chassis. It then only takes up two-thirds of the footprint of a Smart car, claim its makers. The consortium behind the project hope this will allow cities to free up some of the many square miles of precious space parked cars currently inhabit.

Several European and American cities are to be the scenes for the initial trials. Such trials will closely resemble in execution Paris’s new electric car hire/share scheme Autolib, according to the makers. Trials begin in autumn this year in cities such as Bilbao, Malmo and Boston.

Nokia’s Series 40 line of mobile phones has reached an important milestone.

Posted on | January 26, 2012 | No Comments

The mobile company today announced that it sold the 1.5 billionth Nokia Series 40 phone in San Paulo, Brazil. The device, an Asha 303, was sold to 21-year-old Mayara Rodrigues, who wants to use the phone to keep “in touch with friends and family through social networks,” Nokia said. The Asha 303 boasts a touch screen and QWERTY keyboard and comes preinstalled with Angry Birds Lite.

That handset is a far cry from the first Series 40 phone Nokia launched in 1999. Dubbed the Nokia 7110, the device had a spring-loaded cover over a standard numeric keypad. “Send” and “End” buttons above the keypad were just below two input buttons to interact with the device’s software. Speaking of the software, it came with a Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) browser and messaging features.

Nokia is expected to release its quarterly earnings tomorrow, and this announcement might be designed to offer a glimmer of hope to shareholders who watch, with envy, as Apple post huge financials. Just yesterday, Apple announced that it sold a record-breaking 37.04 million iPhones worldwide during the fourth quarter.
