Special Issue on “Recent Developments on Modeling and Control of Hybrid Electric Vehicles”

Environmental pollution and energy shortages are not only the two major problems currently in the sustainable development of the automotive industry, but also the two major bottlenecks in the global automotive industry. Facing the enormous requirement of energy-saving and environment protection, the development of new energy vehicles have become an important measure to solve this problem. Recently, hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) or electric vehicles (EVs) have become a hot topic from both theoretical and practical perspectives. Among various types of electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) — or as they are commonly dubbed “hybrid vehicles” — offer the distinct advantages of energy diversification, versatile operation, long driving range and high sustainability. Particularly, the aim is to employ advanced control strategies to improve the vehicle performance, including fuel economy and dynamic property, for instance.
