In 1997, Toyota sold in Japan the first modern hybrid electric car, the Toyota Prius.http://www.just-auto.com/electric-drive-technology/Hybrid-Electric-Vehicles_d102.aspxWed, 29 Jun 2011 17:29:00 GMTHybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) save fuel because of their electric motor drive. In an HEV, the propulsion system can be configured several ways, for example in the electric motor assisted mode or in the fully electric motor drive mode.http://www.just-auto.com/electric-drive-technology/Gate-Drive-Optocouplers-for-HEV-Electric-Motor-Inverters_d101.aspxWed, 29 Jun 2011 16:51:00 GMTElectric vehicles are clearly becoming a growing part of the automotive scene. They promise low or no emissions, conceivably low cost of fuel from the power grid, yet they will continue to deliver us safely from here to there. However, electric vehicle design and manufacturing is a clearly a paradigm shift for the Auto Industry - new drive systems, technologies. and test plans.http://www.just-auto.com/electric-drive-technology/EV-Battery-Pack-Testing-in-a-Manufacturing-Environment_d100.aspxWed, 29 Jun 2011 16:33:00 GMTThe research report, Automotive technologies: The UK's current R&D capability, forms part of a three-phase plan to produce an automotive technology strategy for the UK.http://www.just-auto.com/electric-drive-technology/Introducing-a-new-research-report-Automotive-technologies-The-UKs-current-capability_d98.aspxFri, 08 Apr 2011 10:39:00 GMTIn May 2009 the New Automotive Innovation and Growth Team (NAIGT) produced its final report, which included an industry consensus high level Technology Roadmap for meeting the ambitious carbon reduction targets in road transport. This comprised a Common Product Roadmap, and a Common Research Agenda which presented future technologies needed to deliver the Roadmap to the envisaged timescales.http://www.just-auto.com/electric-drive-technology/Automotive-technologies-the-UKs-current-capability_d97.aspxFri, 08 Apr 2011 10:32:00 GMTCognizant of the importance of branding, EV manufacturers have launched widespread, ambitious advertising campaigns to connect with buyers considering EVs. Both GM and Nissan have aggressively marketed the releases of the Volt and Leaf through television commercials, print advertisements, and online/new media campaigns. For both established car brands and EV start-ups, the newness of EV technology provides a unique opportunity to win market share, define consumer perceptions, and establish a foothold in a newly developing class of vehicles. To gain insight into the role that car brands will play in the EV market, Zpryme revisited the consumer survey component of the The Electric Vehicle Study conducted in December 2010.http://www.just-auto.com/electric-drive-technology/The-Electric-Vehicle-Study-Branding_d96.aspxFri, 08 Apr 2011 10:00:00 GMTPresident Obama's goal of putting one million electric vehicles on the road by 2015 represents a key milestone toward dramatically reducing dependence on oil and ensuring that America leads in the growing electric vehicle manufacturing industry.http://www.just-auto.com/electric-drive-technology/One-Million-Electric-Vehicles-By-2015_d95.aspxMon, 28 Mar 2011 16:20:00 GMTElectric Drive Transportation Association (EDTA) members include leading and emerging vehicle, battery and component manufacturers, as well as electricity providers, smart grid and infrastructure developers, and others advancing diverse technologies that will displace oil with electricity in transportation.http://www.just-auto.com/electric-drive-technology/Energy-Security-through-Electric-Drive-Achieving-a-Diversified-Fleet-of-Electric-Drive-Vehicles-and-Infrastructure_d94.aspxMon, 28 Mar 2011 15:59:00 GMTElectric drive vehicles -
