Next-generation vehicles would need more compact high-power e-motors and make mild hybrid and full hybrid technology a commercially viable option for most OEMs and powertrain suppliers. Adoption of downsized engines with electric turbochargers and cooled EGR may become popular in light vehicles in 2019–26. EVs are limited in their range, but further development in energy storage devices and electronic management systems is expected to increase it.
Range extender technology may find more relevance in the next decade, which, with the help of an ICE, gives an electrically propelled vehicle an on-demand increase in its range. As implementation of LEZs and ZEZs increases over the next decade, demand for PHEVs and REEVs will be strongly promoted, until BEVs and FCEVs are an economical solution, with investment in related infrastructure.
Traditional internal combustion engines are expected to no longer be the norm in the short-to-medium term, as new-generation engines find ventures into some form of hybrid and range-extender platform for mainstream powertrains. The Powertrain Technologies for Hybridization and Range Extension Report takes in in-depth look at the technologies driving development in this area in a global level.
