Electric and Hybrid Electric Vehicles is a new title that meets the needs of a 3rd- or 4th-semester course in electrical systems. It is also designed to be a standalone text for a special topic or certificate course in electric and hybrid electric vehicles or an introductory course in connected and autonomous vehicles.
The text covers all the advanced technology used in onboard diagnosis as well as up-to-date electrified vehicles technology. You'll learn the basic skills and knowledge needed by all service technicians. For most systems, the text describes the purpose and function of the system, the parts involved and how to operate them, and diagnosis and service information.
For courses in electrical systems and hybrid and electric vehicles.
A unique, one-of-a-kind offering
