The technology pathways are intended to show the different cost impacts of achieving different levels of stringency, if the industry were to place more or less emphasis on hybrids, plug-in hybrids, and electric vehicles as compared to advanced gasoline technologies and vehicle mass reduction. hybrid/vehicle electrification technologies.

Even though most of the key fuel economy technologies are available today, additional breakthroughs and cost reductions would help, including lighter materials, advanced combustion systems and better lubricants. Research, development, demonstration and deployment (RDD&D) of advanced fuel economy technologies is still needed.

Furthermore, the batteries in a PHEV are generally smaller than those in any other electric vehicle constructed today and the battery savings in the PHEV from a pure BEV can easily make up for the cost of the small liquid-fueled engine, resulting in a lower-cost production vehicle for mass distribution.
