| Abstract [eng] |
City pollution is a very important issue which effects our daily life and our health. Commercial trucks which run diesel engines are responsible for most of the pollution in our cities. With new intelligent plug-in hybrid technology fuel consumption can be reduced by more than a half. By reducing fuel consumption internal combustion engine emissions decrease. The IPHEV also has an integrated GPS system which can track the vehicle and work with the onboard computer system to automatically turn off the diesel engine and switch to pure electric mode when the vehicle enters the city center or a designated green zone. The electric motor uses a LiFePO4 battery which has a range of 35 to 65 km. The additional hybrid control unit makes IPHEV system universal and attractive to commercial vehicles manufacturers. |
