Hybrid Electric Vehicle
(HEV) Technology
By: Automotive Research and Design
Hybrid Electric Vehicle Technology provides
foundational information about vehicles that use more than one
propulsion technology to power a drive system.
This new textbook is filled with technical illustrations and
concise descriptions of the different configurations and vehicle
platforms, the operation of various systems and the technologies
involved, and the maintenance of hybrid electric vehicles.
Required safety precautions used when working around high-voltage
systems, especially in emergencies are highlighted.
The
CD-ROM
included with Hybrid Electric Vehicle Technology
contains information to supplement the textbook
including the following:
- Quick Quizzes® offer 10
interactive questions for each chapter, with
embedded links to textbook content and to the
Illustrated Glossary.
- An Illustrated Glossary provides a
helpful reference to commonly used terms. Selected
terms are linked to interactive illustrations and
media clips.
- Flash Cards provide a review of key terms
and definitions.
- Media Clips consist of animated graphics
that reinforce and expand upon textbook content.
- Review Questions (in a Microsoft® Word
file) correlate to chapter objectives and serve as a
knowledge check.
