Abstract
Here in the 21^<st> century, there exist many environmental and natural resource problems such as global warming, fossil fuels resources, and air pollution in urban areas that must be addressed by the automobile industry. The internal combustion engine and electric motor hybrid and fuel cell hybrid vehicles are thought as influential candidates for next generation vehicles to challenge these issues. This paper describes the evolution of ICE vehicles by applying hybrid technology and reports the current status and issues of the ICE hybrid vehicles in the market. With the achievements of this technology that means in combination of advanced ICE and electric drive technologies, I would like to discuss the future potential of ICE vehicles that allow to continue to play an important role in the future.
