Range based model for technology requirements: hybrid vehicle technology assessment case study
by Stephen W. Jordan, Tugrul U. Daim
International Journal of Automotive Technology and Management (IJATM), Vol. 7, No. 4, 2007

Abstract: This paper presents a performance based technology assessment model. The model was used in a case study aimed at improving the performance (mpg) of a basic hybrid vehicle. The assessment model and case study included a gap analysis, a scouting report for candidate technologies, a technology evaluation and selection model, implementation recommendations, and a diffusion and adoption analysis. Hybrid vehicles are an emerging innovation in vehicle manufacturing that can potentially reduce the amount of carbon emissions associated with 'mainstream' vehicles.
