Research from the Institute of Transportation Studies, University of California at Davis (ITS-Davis) suggests it will take more than a reasonable price and good information to get consumers to make more sustainable transportation choices, such as the purchase of a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV). societal attributes.

A study by researchers at the Institute of Transportation Studies, UC Davis finds that buyers of plug-in vehicles (PEVs) are substantially less satisfied with the dealer purchase experience than buyers of conventional vehicles—with the notable exception of Tesla buyers.

Bubble chart of plausible mainstream PHEV buyers’ battery requirements (light and dark gray circles) and experts’s requirements overlaid on a Ragone plot of NiMH and Li-ion batteries. Questions for the industry, Kurani said, include how do we get from where households currently are to where PHEVs provide the most benefit?

Conventional ICEs (internal combustion engines) and HEVs (hybrid electric vehicles) are compared to PHEVs (plug-in hybrids), BEVs (battery-electric vehicles), and FCVs (fuel cell vehicles). Vehicle emissions, then, are underestimated by a similar fraction for BEVs, and by 11–25% for the PHEV pathways. Source: McCarthy et al.

described a prototype lithium-ion battery system targeted at a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) application. kWh capacity matches the USABC short-term goal for a 10-mile equivalent electric range PHEV.). The PHEV pack is based on 14 Ah lithium-ion polymer cells, with carbon-coated LiFePO 4 as the cathode material.

Two recent studies explore different aspects of the use, potential impact and valuation of PHEVs. A study by Jonn Axsen and Ken Kurani from the Institute of Transportation Studies, UC Davis, estimates electricity and gasoline use under three recharging scenarios. the electric range capability—of the PHEV.
