US Hybrid Delivers Hybrid Vans to Verizon.

Thirteen GMC service vans were converted to hybrid technology by US Hybrid. Telecom company Verizon is North America’s 2nd largest fleet operator. The vans utilize Enova Systems’ Post-Transmission Parallel Hybrid Drive System.

The Post-Transmission System has proven to be a noninvasive system that requires little to no modifications to chassis, engine and transmission control, thus avoiding emissions re-certification issues. The Charge Sustaining Control System utilizes relatively small batteries. Depending on the route, fuel economy, (mpg) improvement can be up to 55 percent. Emission improvements vary with the pollutant being measured and have shown up to a 90 percent improvement at times on Particulate Matter based on engine and fuel type and drive cycle operating condition, according to US Hybrid.

US Hybrid specializes in the design and manufacture of integrated power conversion components for electric, hybrid and fuel cell vehicles and renewable energy. (9/4/07)
