Figure A-2: Net Incremental Direct Manufacturing Cost to Add Power-Split HEV
Technology to a Conventional Large Size Vehicle (i.e. 2010 Ford Fusion)
In addition, the incremental cost results for adding power-split HEV technology to other
vehicle segments is presented. Using selected vehicle attributes (e.g., net vehicle
horsepower, internal combustion engine horsepower, traction motor horsepower, traction
motor battery size, wheel base, curb weight, interior volume) custom ratios were
developed for scaling the Ford Fusion large size power-split HEV technology
configuration, and associated incremental costs, to additional vehicle segments. Table
A-1 provides a summary of the incremental cost impact for adding the power-split
technology to the sub-compact, small, and minivan vehicle segments. Note the powersplit
HEV technology was not considered applicable for the small and large truck classes.
