The development of innovative technologies is increasingly oriented towards electrification of vehicle propulsion systems expected to lead to: a reduction of harmful emissions, an increased efficiency of vehicles, improved performances, a reduction of fuel consumption, a reduction of noise, and potentially lower maintenance costs. An electric drive technology implies a technolâ ogy employing at least one drive device called electric motor. Three key electric drive technolâ ogies are: hybrid electric, battery electric, and fuel cell electric technologies.
