DUBLIN--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/59825a/powertrain_new_t) has
announced the addition of the "Powertrain - New Technologies & Strategies"
report to their offering. 

Powertrain - New Technologies & Strategies comprehensively explores the emerging
powertrain technology from the conventional, and changes in gasoline and diesel
engines, to the 'new' technologies of hybrids, EVs and fuel cells. It also
examines the range of strategic choices that OEMs are making as deadlines for
fuel efficiency improvement become closer. 

As the automotive industry strives to reduce emissions and radically improve
fuel efficiency powertrain is the single most important component sector for
development. Today the choices for OEMs are bewildering in technology terms as
each underlying powertrain option continues development at a pace. Furthermore,
there is a new paradigm emerging where the customer options an OEM must offer
includes both gasoline and diesel, alternative fuels, hybrids, and in the future
electric vehicles and fuel cells. This added complexity moves the global
industry away from the long standing strategies governed by the economics of
existing installed capacity and forces a much move expansive approach to
powertrain technology.
