Abstract:

Now a day, the Hybrid Electrical Vehicles (HEVs) gives better solution to overcome the challenges of efficient use of fuel and offer comparatively very low emissions in the field of road transportation sector. Moreover, the Hybrid Electrical Vehicles (HEVs) can be employed in water and air transportation in future. The Hybrid Electrical Vehicles (HEVs) offers combine benefits of internal combustion engines (ICEs) and electric motors. The HEVs not only offer reduced emissions, enhance vehicles to become more fuel efficient but also boost the overall performances. This paper focused on the various vital components of HEVs and their constructional differences. The abstract mostly focused on Series Hybrid Electric Vehicle (SHEV) and parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) and Series-parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicle (SPHEV) along with their advantages, limitations and applications. Furthermore, this paper highlights importance and role of regenerative braking, power split device and energy management systems. Overall, this paper coves review of Series Hybrid Electric Vehicle (SHEV), parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) and Series-parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicle (SPHEV) with discussing their contribution in achieving sustainable road transportation in future.
