| Abstract |
Recently, Environmental problems are becoming more and more important issues in the worldwide scale. For the automobile, the technology which is friendly to the environments is becoming much more important than before. TOYOTA has introduced the HV (Hybrid Vehicle) “PRIUS” into the market in 1997, and now, in March 2005, we launched the “RX400h” hybrid SUV, which is highly compatible new-generation hybrid system with low fuel consumption and impressive power output by developing THS II (Toyota Hybrid System II) that improves high voltage electrical system and control system.I would like to introduce the new system incorporated in the THS II and the expectation for the future automobile power electronics technologies. |
