Zusammenfassung
It may be forgotten that a century ago electric vehicles had a dominant market share over steam and internal combustion automobiles. While quiet, clean and reliable, the Electric Vehicle (EV) was challenged by range and performance limitations, and eventually overshadowed by the electric selfstarter .... One of the first electrified features! Driven in large part by the quest for improved fuel efficiency and emissions - and accelerated by design opportunities and attractive customer features - the re-electrification of motor vehicle is now progressing rapidly. Electrified functions range from the mundane, such as power steering and engine coolant pumps, through a spectrum of hybrid powertrain concepts and on to a resurgent interest in all-electric vehicles.
