Global Hybrid Electric Vehicle Market 2014-2018: Key Vendors are Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Toyota and Volkswagen
DUBLIN, Sept. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Hybrid Electric Vehicle Market 2014-2018" report to their offering.
A hybrid electric vehicle combines two energy sources: mechanical, i.e., internal combustion engine (ICE), and electrical. The size of the gasoline engine in hybrid electric vehicles is smaller than that in traditional vehicles. The combination of these two power sources helps achieve better fuel economy and performance. Hybrid electric vehicles are equipped with efficiency improving technologies such as regenerative braking, which charges the battery by converting kinetic energy into electric energy. Also, many hybrid electric vehicles have start-stop systems, which shut down the ICE when idle and restart it when needed, to reduce idle emissions.
The analysts forecast the Global Hybrid Electric Vehicle market to grow at a CAGR of 20.86 percent over the period 2013-2018.
This report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the Global Hybrid Electric Vehicle market for the period 2014-2018. To calculate the market size, the report considers revenue generated through the unit shipment of the following types of hybrid electric vehicles: hybrid electric cars, hybrid electric trucks, and other hybrid electric vehicles.
