  • Fuel Efficient Road Transport System : a Review
    International Journal of Engineering Research & Technology (IJERT) ISSN: 2278-0181 Vol. 3 Issue 11, November-2014 Fuel Efficient Road Transport System : A Review Telem Bishworjit Singh Dr. Th. Kiranbala Devi M.Tech. Student,Civil Engg. Dept. Faculty, Department of Civil Engineering NIT Silchar, Assam, India Manipur Institute of Technology Manipur, India Abstract - For developing a better economy there is a need of developing an energy-efficient and environment friendly road transport system. India is one of the fastest growing and largest emerging market economies. The Indian economy is one of the fastest growing economies and is the 12th largest in terms of the market exchange rate at $1,430.02 billion (2010 India GDP). In terms of purchasing power parity, the Indian economy ranks the fourth largest in the world. By 2020, India is expected to be in the top 10 largest economies of the world. Rapid economic growth is usually connected to a rapid expansion and highly profitable road transportation. Transportation is a major consumer of petroleum fuels whose prices are set to rise due to the decreasing reserves. There is a need of a more efficient transportation system. Key Words: Transportation, petroleum fuels, consumer, transport system, economies INTRODUCTION India is one of the fastest growing and largest emerging market economies (Wilson and Purushothaman, 2003;IJERTIJERT Economy Watch, 2010). According to W.H.O. the population of India is almost 1,245,910,000 (June 27, 2014) i.e. 17.4% billion people of the total population of the world. To support the population, huge amount of petroleum energy is being consumed in highway transportation sector which in turn cost a huge amount of Indian rupees.

Therefore, these estimates do not predict actual mileage, but should be used to compare the relative fuel economy performance of dii- ferent new models driven under the same test conditions. Choose Your New Car Carefully The greatest single step in saving gasdine is to choose your next car carefully. First, determine the size and type car that can best satisfy your normal driving needs. Next, consider other important factors, such as number of cylinders and type of transmission. Then use the estimated mpg and the average annual fuel cost chart to help you decide which model in that size class to buy.

Since the newly developed car market area of e-mobility has not experienced a long presence on the global personal vehicle market, the report is focusing on the research of current situation for the buyers and the less and more favorable conditions in different countries. The core of the report is a comparative research of BEV, PHEV and conventional types of vehicles with their real market costs situation of spring 2017. The three mentioned propulsion systems vehicles are put into test and finally delivering the true cost to own of each particular one, while considering their propulsion system related quality features as well. Ongoing, the researched assumptions are later on put into test in the form of a questionnaire focusing on finding out about the awareness of electric vehicles among the publicity nowadays. The final statement that is going to be approved or rejected is the electric vehicles as the future of the global car market. _________________________________________________________________________ Language: English Key words: electric vehicles, battery electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid vehicles, conventional vehicles, global car market _________________________________________________________________________ Table of Contents 1.
