New research by IDTechEx in its report, "48V Mild Hybrid and 48V Full Hybrid Vehicles 2020-2030" reveals that the 48V mild hybrid powertrain is a done deal. Started in 2016, now a flood of car models have this, to keep them legal in the face of tightening emissions laws and save fuel.https://www.idtechex.com/en/research-article/new-electric-vehicle-powertrain-will-grab-302-billion-business/18347?rsst2id=147https://www.idtechex.com/en/research-article/new-electric-vehicle-powertrain-will-grab-302-billion-business/18347?rsst2id=147Mon, 07 Oct 2019 ZZZp.harrop@IDTechEx.com (Dr Peter Harrop) IDTechEx will be holding a free webinar on Thursday 22 February titled Electric Buses 2018-2038.https://www.idtechex.com/en/research-article/webinar-thursday-22-february-electric-buses-2018-2038/13726?rsst2id=147https://www.idtechex.com/en/research-article/webinar-thursday-22-february-electric-buses-2018-2038/13726?rsst2id=147Fri, 09 Feb 2018 ZZZp.harrop@IDTechEx.com (Dr Peter Harrop) In the IDTechEx report,"Fuel Cell Vehicles 2016-2026" we predicted that the window of opportunity for fuel cell vehicles is closing as battery pure electric vehicles grab their target markets.https://www.idtechex.com/en/research-article/mercedes-fast-forward-on-battery-cars/10822?rsst2id=147https://www.idtechex.com/en/research-article/mercedes-fast-forward-on-battery-cars/10822?rsst2id=147Fri, 31 Mar 2017 ZZZp.harrop@IDTechEx.com (Dr Peter Harrop) China may be gearing up to have 100,000 pure electric taxis with zero emissions in use soon but at least the iconic British black cab is going to be made in Britain as a hybrid - by a Chinese company.https://www.idtechex.com/en/research-article/hybrid-taxis-produced-in-uk/10797?rsst2id=147https://www.idtechex.com/en/research-article/hybrid-taxis-produced-in-uk/10797?rsst2id=147Thu, 30 Mar 2017 ZZZp.harrop@IDTechEx.com (Dr Peter Harrop) For the first time, air pollution in the UK is now primarily caused by road vehicles.
