The development prospect of hybrid electric vehicle
As crude oil prices continue to climb, automakers are shifting their focus to capture the market for fuel-efficient vehicles. The electric vehicles that countries in the world compete to develop are mainly divided into pure electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles and fuel cell vehicles. Hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) is a commercialized, effective, and relatively early transitional product in the EV family. This is because, so far, pure battery electric vehicles have not reached the level of automobile industrialization requirements, and fuel cell electric vehicles are in the process of industrialization development. As a result, engineering experts have had to find a compromise solution - hybrid electric vehicles, which play the role of electric vehicles. Hybrid electric vehicles are changing the structure and composition of automotive products with an unstoppable force, and a large number of practical. According to the journal AutoMfg &Produetion, the number of hybrid vehicles in the global car market is expected to reach 750,000 in 2005, 1 million in 2010, and 15 percent in 2015. 25% in 2020 this is quite a large proportion of the number of hybrid vehicles. Roughly, if the global car production in 2020 is 100 million, then the hybrid car will be 25 million.
In China, hybrid electric vehicles have the application foundation and industrialization conditions, and it is very likely to be the first to achieve a breakthrough. In November last year, Wuhan, Hubei province took the lead in putting four Dongfeng hybrid buses, the results of the national 863 program, on urban bus lines for demonstration operation, and its operating mileage has reached 80,000 kilometers. Wuhan has put another hybrid electric vehicle into operation. In Beijing, 35 pure electric buses have been successfully developed, of which 20 will be put into demonstration operation on urban bus lines, and the rest will be demonstrated in Miyun County. National Ministry of Science and Technology 863 plan electric vehicle major special project office engineer Wang Cheng recently told reporters. We also plan to set up a fleet of pure electric cars in Tianjin and conduct demonstration operations of micro-electric cars in Weihai, Shandong province. Six fuel cell buses are expected to be in operation in Beijing and Shanghai by the end of next year. By 2008, 1,000 electric vehicles will be deployed in the Olympic venues so that our athletes can ride in clean cars." In short, hybrid vehicles have a broad prospect for quite some time and are welcomed by the market.
