Worldwide, the automotive industry is being challenged to make
dramatic improvements in vehicle fuel economy. In Europe there are
CO2 emissions penalties prorated by the degree to which vehicles
exceed mandated CO2 levels. In the United States, vehicle fuel
economy targets set by Congress in 2007 for 20 per cent fuel
economy improvement by 2020 are now being accelerated by the Obama
administration to 35.5 mpg by 2016 for a passenger car. Taking
effect in 2012, the new rules set more aggressive fuel economy
measures that will require significant gains in engine and
driveline efficiency, better performance cabin climate control and
the introduction of electric hybridization. This 2nd Edition of
Propulsion Systems for Hybrid Vehicles addresses the
electrification innovations that will be required, ranging from low
end brake energy recuperators, idle-stop systems and mild hybrids
on to strong hybrids of the power split architecture in both single
mode and two mode and introducing new topics in plug-in hybrid and
battery electrics. Important topics of the 1st Edition are retained
and expanded and some outdated material has been replaced with new
information.
