They review the types of propulsion systems and vehicle options, discuss low-carbon fuels and alternative energy sources, and examine the role of regulation in curbing emissions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll technologies have an impact on the environment, from internal combustion engine vehicles to battery electric vehicles, fuel cell electric vehicles, and hybrids-there is no silver bullet. The battery electric vehicle may seem the obvious path to a sustainable, carbon-free transportation future, but it's not the only, nor necessarily the best, path forward. The vast majority of vehicles today use the internal combustion engine (ICE), and this is unlikely to change anytime soon. Improving the ICE and its fuels-entering a new ICE age-must be a main route on the road to zero emissions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHow do we go green? The future requires a balanced approach to transportation. It's not a matter of choosing between combustion or electrification; it's combustion and electrification. As the authors say, \"The future is eclectic.\" By harnessing the best qualities of both technologies, we will be in the best position to address our transportation future as quickly as possible. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kelly Senecal, Felix Leach\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e SAE International\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 318\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.86d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781468601466\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eSenecal, Kelly:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Senecal is the co-founder of the engineering software company Convergent Science and a visiting professor at the University of Oxford.\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eLeach, Felix:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Leach is an associate professor of engineering science at the University of Oxford.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SAE International","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":39826840256627,"sku":"9781468601466","price":25.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_6e76ada3-30ec-46c5-9654-2c3868726412.jpg?v=1644556177","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/racing-toward-zero-the-untold-story-of-driving-green-9781468601466","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
