A filter installed on the roof will separate particulate matter from the ambient air. Vehicle occupants will be protected by a cabin air filter. Furthermore a newly developed brake dust particle filter will prevent particles from entering the environment.
Mann+Hummel has already developed solutions to protect vehicle occupants. The test vehicle is also fitted with a newly developed cabin filter. The activated carbon mix used in the filter enables high separation efficiency for toxic nitrogen oxides (NOx) and other harmful gases. The coating of the filter binds high volumes of ammonia while ultra-fine nanofibers in the inside of the filter should provide protection against particulates and pollen.
