Engine downsizing and weight reduction represent around 30% of that potential collectively. Vehicle downsizing has enabled considerable efficiency improvements, particularly in OECD regions and since 2005. The slowdown in production growth reflects higher feedstock prices and lower production volumes in key producing regions.

The competition against PHEVs in 2030 is likely to incorporate a radically downsized, boosted direct-injection engine; an automated manual or 7-8 speed automatic transmission; advanced tires with C R at 0.006 or below; a 30% weight reduction on the glider; advanced aerodynamics with C D of 0.22 times as much. Tax the fuel.”

Though the PHEV combines the two types of energy and power, it is not merely a temporary “transition” between gasoline and diesel cars to pure electric cars. Since it can refuel from a standard household outlet and from a gasoline station, it needs no new infrastructure. It is much more than that. Engineering Advantages of the PHEV.
