Abstract

When a college student receives a new car, their first typical thought isn't how they'll dismantle the vehicle's engine and re-engineer it for maximum fuel efficiency and lowest possible emissions. But that's exactly what members of the Hybrid Electric Vehicle Team of Virginia Tech (HEVT) plan to do with a 2009 crossover SUV, donated by General Motors.
