centered profile storage, the e-Bee's features are designed to be immediately familiar and intuitive for each individual user.
Fully compatible with electric vehicle and hybrid platforms, the e-Bee demonstrates intelligent mobility - gathering and disseminating useful driving-related data, acting as part of a wider mobility-enabling network and integrating technology and design that is simple, flexible and frugal.
The technologies featured in the e-Bee concept range from advanced development to application- and commercialisation-ready.
The e-Bee challenges conventional vehicle architecture by re-thinking the position of the climate system, resulting in reduced weight and substantially increased cabin space. The integrated climate module combines the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) unit with the refrigerant system, including an energy-efficient heat pump. Its position outside the cabin allows for new interior design options, including an easy user experience with the vehicle's electronics and comfort features, designed to mitigate distraction.
"From its driver interface to its compact and innovative climate system, the e-Bee is an exercise in efficient, forward-looking design for new mobility uses," said Tim Yerdon, Visteon's Global Director of Innovation. "In the next few months, the vehicle will be showcased at customer and industry events throughout Asia - including China, Japan, India and Korea - where it will be the centerpiece in Visteon's discussions with customers and partners about future technology trends and needs."
