TY - JOUR AU - Shermina, J AB - In this paper a series hybrid powertrain is presented; factoring in the existing fossil fuel infrastructure established in oil producing economies, environmental impact, drivability characteristics, utilization patterns, advancement in automobile control sub-systems and appropriateness of technology. The prime mover employed for this hybrid are electric hub motors, powered by a super capacitor bank [SCB], which in turn is connected in with a relatively smaller battery pack [BP]. An IC engine is added in the loop to energize the SCB when the charge in the BP falls below the sub-optimal level; and, when the destination or fast charging facility are not reachable with the charge left in the SCB-BP module. A fast charger or a regular charger is plugged in to charge the BP when the vehicle is stationary.
