Characteristics of HEVs

• Series HEV– Electric motor powers the vehicle.– Engine runs at constant speed and charges the battery

pack.– Location of the APU motor/generator is flexible.

• Parallel HEV– APU engine and electric motor are connected to the drive

system--improves efficiency.– Greater power is available using the APU engine and

electric motor simultaneously.– No generator is needed.

• Combination HEV– Characteristics of both series and hybrid HEVs.– More components and a more complex control system is

needed.

Advantages of HybridElectric Vehicles

• Range is greater than an EV.

• Emissions are reduced.

• Gas mileage is improved.

• There is a potential for zero harmful emissions.
