The Chinese are known throughout the world for their creativity and enterprise. Another confirmation of this was the new joint development of two, seemingly different, based on the areas of activity of the companies - Haier and Craft-Bamboo Racing. The first, as you know, is a major manufacturer of home appliances, the second is an international enterprise in racing motorsport. The fruitful cooperation of these companies ended with the creation of a prototype racing car with a motor from the Hyer washing machine, called Formula Haier.
The Hyer company was the idea generator for creating a car on the basis of the washing machine, whose employees turned to Craft-Bamboo Racing for its implementation. To create the Formula Haier, the developers first checked the power of the washing machine motor with a special tool, fixing 660 watts. To reduce air resistance during the movement of the car had to create a special aerodynamic body for him.
During the development process, the Craft-Bamboo Racing engineering team was most struck by how powerful the direct-drive Hyer washer engine was. Therefore, the task, which at first glance seemed unrealistic to them, was fully realized.
Will a unique car with a motor from the washer take part in professional races, only time will tell. But the fact that such a racing car already exists is a great achievement for the Chinese.
