Abstract
Conventional vehicles play a big role in city transportation all over the world. These vehicles run on energy obtained from fossils fuels such as petroleum oils that pollute environment with the gases that are emitted after burning. In addition, the cost of this fuel type will increase because of decreasing reserves; therefore, these petroleum oils must be used very efficiently. Due to environmental and financial problems, the development of clear and efficient city transportation has accelerated. Hence, hybrid electrical vehicles gain significant importance because they are environmentally friendly and efficient in fuel usage. In this study, a conventional commercial vehicle was chosen for design to a mixed hybrid systems. A simulation program was created for road simulation of these vehicles and with acceleration included; the consumption and emission values were also approximately calculated. As a result, it was seen that the mixed hybrid vehicles possess the same performance values with low fuel and CO2 emission.
