Electric Vehicle Technology Explained Review: book surpose to be on electric cars to much side tracking on different subjects. - to much side tracking off the electrical car. Review: Obsolete from the press - Don't waste time with this book 2.0. I also found truly dissapointing the 2nd edition has failing to add any value to the book. It has no treatment on regenerative braking which is one of the key functions in EVs and HEVs. The battery chapter has not been updated at all still paying attention to NiCd and NiMH batteries instead of Li-ion which are just mentioned. It would have been great to have a battery comparative treatment. The driving cycles are barely covered while it has become a big deal in evaluating new cars. 5-6 years ago it was a good book, but now it's been born obsolete. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,888,373 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #248 in Vehicle Design & Construction #394 in Electric Energy #1,927 in Automotive Engineering (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 3.6 3.6 out of 5 stars (7) | | Dimensions | 6.9 x 0.8 x 9.9 inches | | Edition | 2nd | | ISBN-10 | 111994273X | | ISBN-13 | 978-1119942733 | | Item Weight | 1.6 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 344 pages | | Publication date | September 24, 2012 | | Publisher | Wiley | ## Images ![Electric Vehicle Technology Explained - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/712lu3bToHL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ book surpose to be on electric cars to much side tracking on different subjects. *by A***S on November 30, 2021* to much side tracking off the electrical car. ### ⭐ Obsolete from the press *by A***R on December 7, 2013* Don't waste time with this book 2.0.
