of torque at 4,000 rpm, with a targeted combined fuel economy of 28 mpg with front-wheel drive. A multi-disc and individually controlled hydraulic channel torque converter improves responsiveness by expanding the direct connection band, while a downsized oil pump and double ball bearings minimize frictional losses.

Most battery and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) manufacturers in Europe and the US have been adopting onboard chargers with a power output between 3 to 3.7 While high-end PHEVs are contributing to this trend, lower-end models in this segment are still using 3.7 kilowatts (kW). kW to reduce charging time. kW onboard chargers.

The PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), a subset of the electric car, combines a primary electric motor with a much smaller back-up engine fueled with a hydrocarbon/biofuel mix. (In In this paper PHEV refers solely to the long-range PHEV of 60 miles (100 km) electric-only range.) It is much more than that.

Because the high-voltage battery is both power and energy dense, engineers were able to use the downsized gasoline engine to maximize fuel economy and reduce emissions. The Coasting Guide aims at maximizing fuel economy by essentially coaching the driver on when to coast and brake. A compact and lightweight 1.56-kWh
