Meet Quark, Koenigsegg’s groundbreaking electric motor that weighs less than 30kg and delivers impressive performance for supercars and beyond.
Koenigsegg, famous for its innovation in the automotive sector, has just launched a electric motor that promises to change the future of automobiles. The small and powerful Quark engine will be one of the main attractions in Koenigsegg's new Gemera model, which seeks to redefine the limits of electric cars.
The Quark: a compact and powerful electric motor
O electric motor Quark, developed by Koenigsegg, is an example of how the Swedish brand is challenging conventions in the electric car market.
Weighing just 28,5 kg, this engine delivers 340 hp of power and 61,2 kgfm of torque, surpassing many conventional options. Koenigsegg designed the Quark to be a lightweight and efficient engine, ideal for high-performance automobiles.
- New popular car costing R$60 is a success, surpassing Onix, C3, HB20 and others to become the CHEAPEST new car in Brazil
- Will fines be issued? Average speed radars are being installed in different locations in Brazil
- New Law means that obscene gestures in traffic will result in heavy fines and loss of points on your driver's license
- New generation of the Hyundai Tucson: the national hybrid SUV that does up to 33 km/l arrives in Brazil with 252 hp of power
By combining a compact and powerful electric motor, Koenigsegg sets a new performance standard for the automobiles of the future.
This electric motor is not only small, but also more powerful than many combustion engines.
Koenigsegg's Quark weighs just 25 percent of what a conventional 1.0-liter engine weighs, but it offers torque specs that are superior to even the Ram 8's Hemi V1500, one of the most powerful engines on the auto market.
Koenigsegg Quark engine technology
O engine Quark electric is designed to not require a conventional transmission, helping to avoid torque and power losses.
Koenigsegg, with its vast experience in automobiles, ensures that the Quark engine performs efficiently and powerfully, with a peak of 340 hp and 61,2 kgfm of torque in the first 20 seconds of use.
Even after reaching its peak power, the Quark continues to deliver 136 hp and 25,4 kgfm, maintaining the ideal performance for Koenigsegg electric cars.
In addition to being an ideal electric motor for automobiles, Quark also has the potential to be used in other applications.
Koenigsegg is exploring its use in aircraft, drones and other electric mobility vehicles, showcasing the versatility of this revolutionary engine.
Quark's impact on the electric car market
The arrival of engine Quark's introduction into the electric car market is a major innovation, aiming to raise the standards of performance and efficiency for electric cars from Koenigsegg and other brands.
The Quark engine will not only bring improvements to Koenigsegg's cars, but could also influence the electric car market as a whole.
Its compact and powerful design offers new possibilities for the future of electric vehicles, while maintaining the benefits of lightness and low energy consumption.
Combined with two Quark engines, Koenigsegg's Gemera will have a total power of 680 hp and 112,1 kgfm of torque.
This part will help the supercar compete with the fastest cars in the world, while maintaining the electrical efficiency that is one of the main features of the electric car market.
The problem with the electric car was never the motor/inverter. It's still the battery.
Exactly this, electric motors, will only be attractive when the energy source is lighter than the current ones and charges faster. In my case, I use aeronautics.
A plane leaving Manaus for São Paulo taking into account passengers x distance x fuel... it is more economical than a 4-passenger car for the same route. It becomes unfeasible when we talk about load (tn) x fuel x distance... but it gains if we include the time factor... The problem is that people want to buy an electric car to go out on the weekend, go to work and come back... It becomes SUPER VIABLE for those who travel at least 100km a day (60R$) on average... gasoline... But our government wants to end it not because it doesn't work but because it loses REVENUE on fuel, so soon the electric car will have MORE TAXATION than a COMBUSTION car! Take it from solar ENERGY, which WE TAX UP TO 20% OF THE ENERGY GENERATED!
The engine is undoubtedly a super machine, we have to see the inverter and the battery compatible with this model, the problem is the battery.
