NanoFlowcell QUANT FE

The third member of nanoFlowcell's QUANT salt water-powered electric car family and the successor to the nanoFlowcell QUANT F electric concept car, the nanoFlowcell QUANT FE is the top-of-the-line member of the QUANT family based on the nanoFlowcell QUANT e-Sportlimousine.
== Description ==
Produced by the car maker nanoFlowcell, the QUANT FE is driven by four electric motors and uses two fuel tanks of electrolytic fluids, one positively charged and one negatively charged.
The flow cell is split into two halves by a membrane, with positively charged electrolyte flowing through one side and negatively charged through the other. Ion exchange takes place through the membrane, generating an electric current.
Normally, flow cells can be replenished by recharging like any other battery, or simply by replacing the fluid. The nanoFlowcell QUANT FE works differently. As it discharges, the water-based ‘ionic’ fluid electrolyte evaporates, leaving the storage tanks empty and ready for refilling. Quant cars can be refuelled at a pump using a two-pronged nozzle to fill both the ‘positive’ and ‘negative’ tanks at the same time.
Chief technical officer and inventor of the nanoFlowcell Nunzio La Vecchia says, "The ionic fluid is non-flammable and non-toxic, and there are no emissions or high pressures involved. As a result, he adds, on-board storage is straightforward and establishing a filling station network simple and relatively cheap."
The four-wheel-drive concept is claimed to produce and be capable of accelerating from 0-62 mph (100 km/h) in about 2.8 sec, a time that would place the zero-emissions vehicle alongside the fastest hypercars of today. The top speed of the car is 186 mph (300 km/h).
Interestingly, nanoFlowcell is also labeling the QUANT FE as "near-series maturity", suggesting that it too could influence a production model in the future. The car maker says the model has been completely redesigned since its 2015 launch, "with a keen eye on homologation requirements".http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/motor-shows-geneva-motor-show/nanoflowcell-quantino-could-make-production-year

===Performance===
Owing to its extreme weight, the nanoFlowcell Quant FE has various weaknesses, even as an Elite Car. Its main characteristic is quick acceleration at the expense of weak handling and a wide drifting radius. The Quant FE also has difficulty performing barrel rolls, requiring higher jumps for the barrel roll to be performed, forcing the player to sacrifice air speed or use other means to gain nitro.
On technical tracks like Iceland, Dubai, and Sector 8, as stated above, fails to handle and drift well, causing it to not take sharp corners well. Even in the hands of a skilled driver, the Quant FE will need a lot of careful handling as making even the slightest mistake can wreck the car at the sharp turns. The Quant FE is not suitable for use on these tracks. As with cars with poor handling, when approaching a corner that requires drifting, it is recommended to drift early.
With its reshuffling into low Class A in the Fifteenth Anniversary Update, the Quant FE retains its quick acceleration and weak handling. While it has the fourth-fastest acceleration for its placement (only slower than the Lamborghini Egoista, Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 RR my2017, and Aston Martin DBS Superleggera), its proximity to high Class B and the Class A 1770 cars (the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse in particular as it is a popular alternative to Festival cars) means that the Quant FE still remains as a poor option for both multiplayer leagues.
Overall the nanoFlowcell Quant FE is considered to be one of the worst cars in the game due to its poor overall performance for its rank.
