Electric and Hybrid-Electric Vehicle Components

The Global Market for Batteries, Ultracapacitors, Electric Motors, and the Electronics that Improve Vehicle Efficiency

The hybrid-electric and electric vehicle markets have been growing slowly for several years, but the price premium for the additional hardware required always has been a significant barrier to mass market appeal. The hydraulic and flywheel energy storage systems remain very much in the evaluation phase, but they have started to get some serious consideration in garbage truck and Formula One Racing applications respectively.

This report combines the recent NextGen vehicle research on electric vehicles with data from NextGen’s reports on both consumer and commercial hybrids, to present the overall vehicle sales forecast numbers broken down by hybrid, electric, and hydraulic architecture from 2008 through 2014. In addition, NextGen provides analysis of the markets for specific components used in hybrid and electric vehicles, such as advanced battery systems and electric motors.
