Optimisation Analysis of the Hybrid Vehicles Powertrain

The hybrid electric vehicles are a special category of vehicles, developed for optimization of internal combustion engines. They represent a temporary solution in the way to fully electrification of vehicles. The purpose of this paper is to clarify the functioning of hybrid vehicles and emphasize their advantages over classical internal combustion engine vehicles. For this reason, the paper explains the drivetrain optimization starting from the brake specific consumption map diagram.
