「炭素繊維車」を共同開発 東レ・日産など ４割軽量化 １０年代半ば素材を量産 コスト、鋼材並みに
Acoording to sources,Toray, Nissan and others, including Honda and Tokyo University,will jointly develop carbon fiber vehicles.They now indend to establish the technology for mass-producing carbon fiber materials for the vehicle in the middle of the 2010s. They say that introducing the new vehicle component material will enable the weight of the car's body lighter by about 40 % comapred with the present.For realizing it, they are planning to reduce the cost of producing new materials to the level of the present steel.
