Electric and Hybrid Vehicles 2nd Edition by Tom Denton is a PDF book for free download.
Electric and hybrid vehicles are now the present, not the future. This straightforward and highly illustrated full colour textbook is endorsed by the Institute of the Motor Industry and introduces the subject for further education and undergraduate students as well as technicians.
This new edition includes a new section on diagnostics and completely updated case studies. It covers the different types of electric vehicle, costs and emissions, and the charging infrastructure, before moving on to explain how hybrid and electric vehicles work.
A chapter on electrical technology introduces learners to subjects such as batteries, control systems and charging which are then covered in more detail within their own chapters. The book also covers the maintenance and repair procedures of these vehicles, including fault finding, servicing, repair and first-responder information.
Clear diagrams, photos and flow charts outline the charging infrastructure, how EV technology works, and how to repair and maintain hybrid and electric vehicles. Optional IMI online eLearning materials enable students to study the subject further and test their knowledge.
It is particularly suitable for students studying towards IMI Level 2 Award in Hybrid Electric Vehicle Operation and Maintenance, IMI Level 3 Award in Hybrid Electric Vehicle Repair and Replacement, IMI Accreditation, C&G and other EV/Hybrid courses.
Preface:
In this book you will find lots of useful and interesting information about electric and hybrid
vehicles (EVs). This book is the fourth in the ‘Automotive Technology: Vehicle Maintenance and
Repair’ series, which includes:
X Automobile Mechanical and Electrical Systems
X Automobile Electrical and Electronic Systems
X Advanced Automobile Fault Diagnosis
Ideally, you will have studied some automotive technology, or have some experience, before
starting on this book. If not, don’t worry, it does start with the basics. The book looks at electrical
and electronic principles as well as EV and hybrid technologies using comprehensive case studies
and examples. It will cover everything you need to advance your studies to a higher level, no
matter what qualification (if any) you are working towards.
I hope you find the content useful and informative. Comments, suggestions and feedback are
always welcome at my website, www.automotive-technology.co.uk, where you will find new
articles, links to online resources and much more.
Good luck and I hope you find automotive technology as interesting as I still do.
