The Coming Wave in Automobiles: Advanced Engines and Electronics for Automotive Applications

PALO ALTO, Calif., Nov. 28, 2005; The Technical Insights Group at Frost & Sullivan (http://www.technicalinsights.frost.com ) is pleased to announce its exclusive interactive analyst briefing presentation on Wednesday, November 30, 2005 at 3:00pm EST.

Research Analyst Rajesh Kannan has been tracking emerging automotive technologies in Europe and the Asia Pacific, and is currently undertaking an analytical view of the electric and hybrid vehicles in North America. He will comment on the technology trends, innovation hotspots, consumer adoption and regulatory developments in the automotive technologies arena, followed by a question and answer session.

This briefing is expected to benefit companies and researchers interested in entering the burgeoning automotive engine and electronics technologies arena, as well as companies in the process of developing technologies for this sector.

Stricter emission standards are forcing companies to manufacture environment-friendly automobiles, with the resultant explosion in interest in hybrids and fuel cell vehicles. Automotive safety is another major concern, as advances in electronics and sensor technologies seek to make driving safer.

"Though Japanese companies such as Toyota and Honda have taken the lead in hybrid vehicle development, the growing concern over automotive pollution has led to a flurry of interest in this arena. Development is underway at all major automotive R&D houses to produce more fuel-efficient cars -- hybrid, fuel cell, or a cross between the two," notes Rajesh Kannan.
