DUBLIN--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/e0e91b/the_hybridelectri) has announced the addition of the "The Hybrid-Electric Light Vehicles Report (2nd Edition)" report to their offering.

This report examines existing and emerging ICE-electric hybrid technologies and the market and legislative influences that are driving developments in the sector. It also contains market forecasts for the period to 2015, in addition to profiles of the key suppliers in the sector.

Abstract

Although light vehicle markets in the developed regions have been depressed during the last year and a half, hybrid sales have begun to increase and are forecast to continue increasing at a rate that will substantially outperform the overall market.

In developing regions, hybrid sales have been minimal, largely because they have been too expensive for most consumers. However, new incentive schemes in China and the prospect of reduced tariffs in India could help to increase sales in those two enormous markets in the near future.
