Electric cars have several benefits compared to conventional internal combustion engine automobiles‚ including a significant reduction of local air pollution‚ as they have no tailpipe‚ and therefore do not emit harmful tailpipe pollutants less dependence on foreign oil Next is the hybrid. A hybrid vehicle is a vehicle that uses two or more distinct power sources to move the vehicle. Most hybrids use a combination of a regular car engine and an electric motor. With hybrid cars you have the option

manufacturing of a very small engine‚ namely its head. The engine works under the 4-stroke cycle‚ therefore having a very complex cylinder head‚ housing the camshaft‚ valves and its auxiliaries (seats‚ guides‚ springs)‚ spark plug‚ inlet and exhaust passages and a coolant chamber. The geometries‚ both inner and outer are highly intricate which makes the production of such a part a very difficult job. In addition‚ when the engine is very small‚ as it is the case of this engine‚ all dimensions are miniaturized

much study on cars but there is still much to be learned. Being a DIPLOMA holder in AUTOMOBILE ENGG; I very well know the basics of AUTOMOBILE ENGG. I am well aware about the concepts of body designing‚ engine working and gear mechanism. I can even make a miniature four stroke internal combustion engine which not many guys of my age can make. Chassis making is also a job that fascinates me.Besides this; I also keep an eye on NATIONAL and INTERNATIONAL AUTO EXPO. Especially‚ the Geneva Motor show. It

late 1700’s. European engineers began thinking of developing the first automobile to make life easier. By the mid 1800’s they began to think over how the automobile would run. Some manufactures tried using stream‚ combustion‚ and electrical motors to run their prototypes. The steam engine was invented in the early 18th century and has been applied to a variety of practical uses. But one of the most important ways steam was used was to power an automobile. The first steam powered automobile was built

been over a century for the gasoline combustion engine to become what it is today. In the United States‚ car companies have joined forces to develop newer cleaner technologies. The research on alternate fuel sources for cars began long ago‚ but it was not until 1999 that the first hybrid electric powered vehicle was sold. This car was manufactured by automaker Honda‚ and was called the Insight. An electric hybrid vehicle employs the operation of a small engine to assist a typically battery powered

- Impact on Transportation Technology All transportation depends on technology‚ whether it’s the wheel‚ the jet engine‚ or the computer chip. Transportation is not just technology‚ it’s a system of technology‚ people‚ energy‚ money‚ and more. However‚ advances in technology play a key role in shaping transportation systems‚ which in turn help to shape our lives‚ landscapes‚ and culture. Because transportation is so important to commerce‚ and literally and figuratively‚ it is so much depended on
