Authors Abstract
Content
The electrification momentum of automotive powertrains has slowed down globally in recent years. At the same time, hybrid powertrains, once treated as transitional technology so as to be ignored, have achieved outstanding market performance and are increasingly gaining attention. A diversified powertrain technology landscape is gradually forming over the previous internal combustion dominant or the expected battery electric dominant scenarios. Due to misinformation and the communication barrier, some perceptions about China's automotive industry and powertrain technology within the international community remain partial, outdated, and misleading.
The Future of Automotive Powertrain Development: Insights from the Chinese Market speaks to future trends for automotive powertrains and promotes the formation of a global consensus by sharing insights from powertrain experts at leading Chinese automakers and providing firsthand insights into the actual state of the Chinese automotive industry.
