Abstract
The impact of today’s vehicle on the global environment landscape is undeniable. In hopes the automobile industry is investing large amounts into technology research and development. A prominent element of this effort is the development of powertrain alternatives to the omnipresent internal combustion engine (ICE). While a number of these alternatives show great promise toward improved energy efficiency or reduced airborne effluent, some early prototypes lack the power density of ICEs. This deficiency implies that either performance must be compromise. Proper selection from several technology combinations requires knowledge of the customer’s value function, but the first step is to quantify the decision characteristics. This thesis examines the resulting cost and environmental performance trade-off implicit in selecting between these two complementary fuel efficiency strategies. Focus is given to reducing weight through the use of light body structures. In particular, this thesis quantifies the relationship between environmental performance and one element of cost, the cost of producing lightweight body structures. For these powertrain and body combinations the environmental performance is modelled. Finally, implications of fuel price policy and increasing fuel economy standards for adoption of these alternative technologies are analysed.
