2012 IEEE International Electric Vehicle Conference
Preserved Fulltext
If we replace our gasoline-engine cars with truly electric cars, we can build a new carmaking industry. A few huge, often financially troubled companies with slow-changing technology dominate today's industry. But we can build a new carmaking industry as big, bold, vibrant and fast-moving as the computer industry. A modular car architecture that builds on the advantages of an electric-not mechanical-power train is the key. Our "proof of concept" truly electric car has seven modules, each a
