• Abstract:
  This project was an initiative to engineer, develop and build a plug-in hybrid-electric vehicle using the Dual-Drive system. The project aimed to build a plug-in hybrid utilitarian vehicle on a light commercial vehicle platform. The hybrid vehicle will have a range of 35-40 miles and will have the ability to switch between pure electric drive and pure gasoline drive. The vehicle’s electric drivetrain will enable the vehicle to run efficiently at very low speed conditions and will also give the user the flexibility to switch to pure gasoline driving and thus drive at highway speeds.
