Experimental vehicle design has been conceived by GM Research Laboratories to explore use of low-emission engine and electric drive system in small car; for study, 1968 Opel Kadett has been modified to use variable-speed a-c electric motor to drive rear wheels through reduction gears and differential; batteries provide electric power to motor through electronic circuitry that gives variable frequency required for speed control; small Stirling engine, driving alternator, supplies energy to batteries; description of components and specifications.
