Will Fuel Economy Sell and Can We Afford It? What<br />
Concepts are Rising to the Top and How Much of a Cost<br />
Increase Do They Represent?<br />
Federal and state regulatory bodies are set to increase fuel economy standards<br />
and regulate a reduction of CO2 from all sources including that of transportation.<br />
How will the consumer purchasing patterns change with regard to increased fuel<br />
economy? What technologies will be used to increase fuel economy and at the<br />
same time keep the vehicles affordable to the consumer? What technologies are<br />
the winners and which are the ones who’s time has not yet come? The panelists will<br />
discuss the entire array of issues related to the panel theme.<br />

Alternative Fuels: Does the Model Work? What are the<br />
Powertrain-Related Technical Challenges?<br />
National security, energy security, greenhouse gas emissions, the economies<br />
throughout the world and a myriad of other issues are all reasons there is a need for<br />
alternative fuels for transportation and other sectors that use energy. Which fuels<br />
are most likely to be viable in the short term? Which in the long term? Is there really<br />
an economically viable alternative fuel that can reasonably replace petroleum-based<br />
fuels? What are the challenges for the powertrain industry in adapting to the various<br />
alternative fuels or energy sources? The distinguished panel will inform the audience<br />
of these and other alternative fuels related issues.<br />
