A Technology Review of various Internal Combustion Engine and Electric Propulsion in Electric Vehicles
Abstract
At Present the development of Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) is one of the major research
areas under automotive sector. Hybrid Electric Vehicle is a combination of an internal combustion
engine and electric motor, which still has a drawback of harmful gas emissions. The torque produced is
also a concern for the design and control of Hybrid Electric Vehicle. This paper reviews/analysis the
drawback of various internal combustion engines and electric propulsion combinations used in HEV
based on their performance characteristics
