Research and Development NETWORKED CARS AND THE DOMOBILE PSA Peugeot Citroën has developed new wireless systems that provide access to emerging telematic services in Europe, such as traffic information and SMS. Their purpose is to help improve traffic control and safety by enriching dialogue with the driving environment (road conditions, traffic, traffic conditions, etc.). Services include visual and voice information to guide drivers using a GPS locator, a CD-ROM with local maps supported by a navigational computer, etc... Sustainable mobility also has to integrate the fact that passengers should be able to surf the Web, read their e-mail, connect their laptop, listen to Internet radio or watch streaming videos, just like they do at home or in the office. The Group is working on a new concept responding to this emerging trend. Known as the Domobile, it is being developed with a constant focus on ensuring that the humanmachine interface guarantees easy, user-friendly access to these high-tech applications, without jeopardizing the safety of road users. lowers fuel consumption and emissions, and since the engine shuts down only if a number of criteria are met, it does not endanger safety or inconvenience the driver. Another advantage for vehicle occupants and the surrounding area is that engine noise is eliminated during shutdown. - Mild Hybrids optimize cost effectiveness with an integrated generator-starter. At a price that compares favorably with conventional solutions, the electric system provides extra power, Stop and Start capability, and anti-stall protection that significantly enhances environmental performance. - Full Hybrids optimize powertrain output by electronically managing the electric and internal combustion engines, automatically switching from one to the other depending on which one is more efficient. PSA Peugeot Citroën is developing such hybrids with a driver-activated zero emission vehicle (ZEV) option. FUEL CELLS, A BREAKTHROUGH TECHNOLOGY Fuel cells make the introduction of longrange electric vehicles theoretically possible. The challenge is to convert the chemical energy into electricity directly on board. The Group is exploring a variety of options for developing an affordable, reasonably sized onboard fuel cell that can be used safely. At present, for the same range, a hydrogen fuel tank is five to ten times bigger than a gasoline tank. 94 PSA PEUGEOT CITROËN - MANAGING BOARD REPORT
Growth Strategy Corporate Governance Business Review Corporate Policies Management’s Discussion and Analysis Statistics THE CAR AND OUR FIVE SENSES Research is also being conducted on the automobile’s role as a multi-sensory environment. The most obvious perceptions are visual and tactile, and many programs are concerned with passenger compartment brightness, textile and plastic quality, and seat comfortableness. Other projects are working on auditory perceptions, to harmonize the growing number of electronic sounds and achieve a better balance between a quiet ride and the information needed for driving. Research into olfactory perceptions aims to offer personalized fragrances that match the car’s personality. These and similar programs are moving in the direction of “profiled” model lines corresponding to each driver’s sense of well-being. PSA Peugeot Citroën is already working on two specific applications: - The first is the Taxi PAC demonstrator, which stores pressurized hydrogen in a removable Plug and Drive rack. This corresponds to the fuelling practices of the target users, drivers of city fleets. Taxi PAC also operates in range extender mode, where the hydrogen fuel cell backs up the battery-driven powertrain. - The second manufactures hydrogen on board, on demand, from a sodium borohydride aqueous solution and a catalyst. This solution resolves the problem of storing hydrogen safely and in sufficient quantities on board a reasonably sized car. The Peugeot H 2 O demonstrator, which also operates in extended range mode, was presented at the Paris Auto Show in September 2002. PSA PEUGEOT CITROËN - MANAGING BOARD REPORT 95
