18/01/26 Electric motor in anEVis used to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy by the interaction of magnetic field with current to power the vehicle. The use of electric motors is on the rise owing to the growth in the market for new energy vehicles (NEVs). These vehicles include hybrid, plug-in hybrid, pure EV, and fuel cell vehicles that use alternative renewable energy sources.

18/01/26 Temperature sensors are used to measure the temperature by converting thermal energy into electrical energy. This information is then sent to the electronic control unit (ECU), which calculates appropriate algorithms based on the data to keep the vehicle running in good condition.

18/01/26 The automotive digital key is a technology where the smart phones can be used as the vehicle key to lock/unlock the doors and start the engine using near field communication (NFC) or Bluetooth technology. Technavio's analysts forecast the global automotive digital key market to grow at a CAGR of 10.53% during the period 2018-2022.

18/01/26 Many people benefit by using car rental services because of the reduced total cost of mobility. A crucial reason contributing to the growth of the market is that providers own the vehicles and users are free from the burden of ownership costs. Customers also have the flexibility of choosing cars that can meet their daily needs. Moreover, insurance costs incurred during renting vehicles are also taken care of users by the rental companies. Corporate members also have access to a fleet of cars wit

17/12/29 We are in the decade of the hybrid electric vehicle despite the fact that most off-road and underwater vehicles are pure electric. That includes most forklifts, golf cars and mobility vehicles for the disabled plus Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) and personal submarines. Indeed, most electric aircraft are pure electric as well. The reason is that these are mainly small as are electric two-wheelers, which are also almost all pure electric. Small vehicles rarely need to travel long distances

17/12/29 For 20 years we have surveyed the whole electric vehicle scene land, water and air, hybrid and pure electric. The next 20 years will make all that seem just a taster. Industries will collapse but certain countries, companies and users will prosper. The unique IDTechEx overview report, "Electric Vehicles 2018-2038: Forecasts, Analysis and Opportunities" explains all this including the barely-noticed new end game of energy independent electric vehicles EIV. Nowadays, there are EIVs announced all t

17/12/28 Developments in the automotive sector in the latter part of the 2010s have been nothing short of staggering, and so fast paced that even those that have been following the sector for many years admit not having witnessed such radical shifts in decades: A $1.7 trillion market with many facets and complex value chains, mobility is undergoing three paradigm-shifting transformations, all in the same decade: connectivity, autonomy, and electrification.

17/12/28 Mobile robotics in material handling and logistics will become a $75bn market by 2027. It will then more than double by 2038. These staggering headline figures mask turbulent transformative change underneath: some technologies will rise and transform the fortunes of industries, fuelling growth rates far outpacing recent trends, whilst others will face with decay and obsolesce. We are at the beginning of the beginning of a transformative change, and the time to plan is now. The images below demon

17/12/28 Small manned electric vehicles - e-bikes to car-like micro EVs - are closely related and often sell in the largest numbers. The rag bag of names obscures the fact that they are closely related and add up to a very large market. Although car-like micro EVs are usually lower in cost than regular cars, together with two wheel EVs, they will reach over $41 billion in 2028 on IDTechEx analysis. Eight sub-categories are forecasted by numbers and value from 2018-2028. Golf cars are seen to be a static

17/12/28 Electric vehicles for construction, agriculture and mining will be a $87 billion market in 2028. Komatsu, John Deere, Caterpillar, and others manufacture the big vehicles - mainly hybrid - while other manufacturers offer smaller, pure-electric versions.
