Hexcel’s HiMax carbon fibre reinforcements have been selected by Bright Lite Structures (BLS), with offices in San Francisco and a production plant in Peterborough, UK, for the manufacture of safety-critical areas of the Zenos E10 composite chassis.
The engineered carbon fibre multiaxial fabrics ensure that the sports car’s floor structure can withstand high seat belt pull-out loads in the event of a crash.
The Zenos E10 is a high performance sports car with an innovative and lightweight design. Zenos set out to maximise the driving experience whilst making its cars affordable and accessible to a larger number of people. The result is a stunning combination of sublime handling and immediate acceleration, delivering a truly exhilarating drive on the road or on the track – all available at an everyday price.
