Smart Tow VW Up being towed by Swift Motorhome on A-Frame with electronic power brakes
Переглядів 53 тис.11 років тому
Smart-Tow lightweight towing frames use a proportionally sensed vacuum pump that energises and applies the towed vehicles own power brakes with 100% effectivity. Having the power braking system permanently installed in the towed vehicles means that the A-Frame can be much lighter than conventional systems, only 7.25kg

    I am considering towing a Honda E electric car and wondered if while towing the battery could be charged? On the TV program Long Way Up they ride electric motorbikes and two Rivians as support, the Rivians were recharged on at leaast one ocassion by being towed. If it can be made to work what a fantastic solution.

    At 0:52 it shows very clearly the motorhome driving around a roundabout with no problem BUT the towed car actually runs over the roundabout...imagine if that roundabout was a brick wall!

    • @lowrangemaniac5326
      @lowrangemaniac5326 5 років тому

      The problem is the driver. It will happen with a conventional trailer too, if you take a sharp turn like this.

  • @wayneelliott2462
    @wayneelliott2462 8 років тому

    Hardly compliant, given that a A frame and towed car are classed as a trailer and therefore limited to lawfully provide no more than 50% of the braking effect, the A frame also has to have a method to maintain a positive element of steering if becoming detached in motion, and the draw bar element must be manufactured in such away that, it cannot impact with the road if becoming detached in motion. The modification to the front impact bar certainly effects the crash characteristics as the crumple area will now transfer far greater energy further back to the suspension turrets and beyond and will no doubt require re calibration of the airbag deployment values.

  • @michaelwells7039

      How the hell would that effect the tracking. Only a small amount of force similar to enthusiastic low speed driving.
