The French manufacturer will take the covers off a machine based on its Ligier JS2 R racer after joining forces with Bosch, which provides the motor generator unit, inverter and vehicle control unit for the LMDh hybrid system.
The so-called JS2 RH2, its name inspired by the Ligier JS2 which finished second at Le Mans in 1975, will be equipped with three integrated hydrogen tanks and be powered by a converted V6 combustion engine. Ligier Automotive President Jacques Nicolet said:"As a manufacturer of racing cars and special vehicles, we must provide the innovations to meet tomorrow's challenges in order to offer motorsports and high-performance vehicles a new path for development.
