摘要: In the years since California zero emission vehicle standard (ZEV) was proposed, automotive experts have come to a startling conclusion: gasoline-fuels, internal combustion engine-powered automobile may finally be on way out. Experimental low-emission cars made of advance composite materials and run electric drive trains electronic controls are now being developed by more than dozen countries. The new designs 3 5 times efficient that today`s reduce emissions regulated pollutants at least 95% those carbon dioxide 75-90%. Topics discussed in this artical include race towards development; possibilies; Hybrid-electric; fuel possibilites; advanced storage strategies; transition; sustainability require diversity.
