    Plugging In: A Consumer’s Guide to the Electric Vehicle Today’s Choices in Cars Hybrid vehicles Late in 2010 the first mass-produced electric vehicles hit dealer showrooms, bringing car buyers a new, electric option. Electric cars offer performance, safety and versatility and can be charged from the electric grid, providing convenient, low- cost, at-home charging. At the U.S. national average price of 11.5 cents per kilowatt-hour, buying electricity is approximately equivalent to buying gasoline at $1 per gallon. Displacing gasoline with Hybrid vehicles are powered by a gasoline engine and an one or more electric motors. electricity also lowers emissions and decreases petroleum use. On a typical day half of all The battery is charged as the vehicle drives, so the vehicle is powered ultimately by gasoline. Examples drivers log 25 miles or less, so electric vehicles – are the Toyota Prius and Ford Fusion Hybrid. if widely adopted – could reduce petroleum fuel Hybrid vehicles cannot be recharged from the grid. consumption by 70 to 90%.

  • Ford Motor Company: Hybrid Driveline Design & Control
    Ford Motor Company: Hybrid Driveline Design & Control 1. Context One of the most popular hybrid vehicles on the road today is the Ford Fusion Hybrid. Winner of the Car of the Year award at the 2010 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, the Ford Fusion Hybrid has become both a technological and commercial success for Ford Motor Company. Ford Motor Company (www.Ford.com) dedicates considerable resources to improving the design of products like the Fusion Hybrid by using Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) testing technologies. These HIL technologies can be applied to all aspects of vehicle design including engine control development, transmission control, body electronics, chassis control systems and traffic control & active safety systems. In many cases, the HIL simulation approach is a valuable alternative to testing with physical prototypes since testing with physical prototypes early in the design process can result in costly damage to physical hardware. Hybrid driveline design and control is one of the key aspects of the next generation of hybrid vehicle, including the Ford Fusion Hybrid. At the heart of the hybrid driveline is the electric motor drive. Although electric motor drive technology is very mature, its use in the automotive industry is new. In addition, simulation of these electric motor drives poses a number of challenges for Ford engineers. As a result, caution must be taken to ensure that the safety and reliability of hybrid driveline designs meets the very high quality expectation of Ford’s customers. OPAL-RT TECHNOLOGIES 1 2. Challenge Modern automotive design architectures rely heavily on new, complex power electronic, electrical and mechanical systems, which often must be designed, tested and integrated concurrently.
