Hi as part of my uni course i have been asked to develop a specifiction for a small diesel engined hybrid car.

Does anyone know some manufacturers for batteries and motors used in the cars so i can get some more information such as weight, sizes etc.

Many thanks for any information

Hi Rinorris:

___If you look up the University of Wisconsin – Future Truck challenge or competition, you should find an automobile named Moolander IIRC? Its propulsion unit was a small diesel based hybrid with SULEV emissions and decent FE for driving such a large GVWR. I remember reading about it maybe 2 + years ago and the team gave very specific details on the exact HW used as well as where it all came from.

___Pass us the link once you find it again just in case I have expanded on details that may or may not have been entirely correct.

___Good Luck and I hope this helped.
