Ren RS Turbine Supercar

Chinese company Techrules has revealed the Ren RS turbine range-extender EV supercar. The Techrules Ren RS uses patented TREV technology (turbine-recharging electric vehicle) that effectively creates a very efficient and powerful range-extending system. It describes the TREV system as such: “Air drawn into the micro turbine is passed through a heat exchanger where heat from the exhaust air is transferred to the cold intake air, and compressed before it is ignited. The twin turbine, six-motor setup is the most extreme combo available from Techrules, but potential buyers can get less extreme versions with just a single turbine and four electric motors (640kW/1560Nm). The Ren had a three-seat configuration, with a center-mounted driver’s seat up front flanked by two set-back passenger seats. The Techrules books are open for orders, and the company said the cars will be delivered within two years to an “exclusive band of customers.”
