La Vecchia comes with a pick-up
You don’t hear anything about NanoFlowcell for over a year, and you read two articles about it in a short time. We were recently able to exclusively show you a first glimpse of a new model from NanoFlowcell and now we have our hands on a second one. That will be a completely different monster!
NanoFlowcell is the company of Nunzio La Vecchia, the founder who made himself completely immortal by recording sticky hits and peering sultrily into the camera lens. La Vecchia is also the self-proclaimed mastermind behind the technology that NanoFlowcell uses, at least on paper. NanoFlowcell’s intended models – none have ever been sold – use so-called flow batteries, batteries in which positively and negatively charged liquid electrolyte flows from an external tank through the batteries, generating electricity. NanoFlowcell has not been heard from for a year, but in December AutoWeek was able to present you with a set of patent plates that indicate that there is still something brewing in Switzerland. Now we have a second newcomer from the stubborn company.
The newcomer mentioned was clearly a further development of the NanoFlowcell Quant that the La Vecchia company has already demonstrated several times in recent years. We also have a smaller model from NanoFlowcell: the Quantino. The new model that we now have in our hands is one from a category in which NanoFlowcell was previously not seen. On the pictures we see a brand new and apparently relatively compact pick-up with four doors.
Will NanoFlowcell’s cars actually be built and hit the road? If we can believe the words of La Vecchia from 2014, that will really happen. First see, then believe. La Vecchia’s past is not entirely spotless. La Vecchia would not be an engineer at all and had previously been convicted in a fraud case. Or NanoFlowcell the real deal is? We are sceptical.
