	Lexus Introduces RX 400h
		The Lexus RX 400h is defined as a "full hybrid," which means that it is capable of operating in electric-only or gas engine-only mode as well as a mode that combines the power of the gas engine and electric motor.
		When the RX 400h is coasting or the brakes are applied, the electric motors function as generators, capturing kinetic energy that would normally be lost as heat through the brakes and transforming it into useable electricity to recharge the batteries.
		Lexus announced the launch of the all-new 2006 RX 400h, the world's first gas/electric hybrid-powered luxury vehicle, which will go on sale in April 2005.

	Technical Mysteries Unraveled
		Since the Torsen differential is designed to have little or no effect on vehicle performance unless torque is being transferred by the differential, it should be understood that what is meant by the coasting mode is actually vehicle deceleration caused by engine braking.
		This feature enables the Torsen differential to support a torque imbalance between drive axles which contributes to the total amount of torque which can he transferred from the engine to the drive axles when the amount of torque which can be supported in one of the drive axles is limited by available traction.
		The Torsen differential resists transfers of torque between drive wheels in proportion to the torque applied to the differential housing, and this results in a larger proportion of the applied torque being delivered to the slower rotating drive wheel.

		With the Torsen differential, Gleason is meeting this challenge of improving traction management in both front and rear wheel drive vehicles, all-wheel drive vehicles, and in a variety of applications of the various drives for use in cars, trucks, military vehicles, construction and utility vehicles, and racing cars.

		The electric motors shut down the diesel engine at idle and power the car from rest, and the battery pack is recharged when braking or coasting.
		This so-called two-mode hybrid system is claimed to overcome what GM sees as one of the main disadvantages of existing hybrids, namely that they soon exhaust their battery power when running at motorway speeds and are then no more efficient than conventional engines.
		The engine is a 125bhp 1.7-litre turbodiesel with two electric motors.

	Automatic train operation (ATO) AVV
		The AVV system also enables automatic drifting (coasting) at the moment when the just-in-time arrival in the next station is possible without using of tractive effort.
		It provides basic operation mode - Automatic speed control (ASC), when the vehicle is controlled to achieve and keep the required speed.
		ASC is characterized by aperiodic achieving of required speed, very precious keeping of it (+/- 1 km/h), prefering of dynamic brake usage and by possibility of delayed acceptation of required speed after the whole train leaves the track with speed restriction.

	GM - GMability Advanced Technology: Opel Astra Diesel Hybrid Concept Demonstrates Easy Scalability of Innovative Two-Mode Full Hybrid System
		DETROIT (Jan. 10, 2005) – The Opel Astra diesel front-wheel drive concept vehicle, equipped with a two-mode full hybrid and the 1.7-liter CDTI engine, delivers up to 25 percent improved fuel economy while maintaining fun-to-drive performance.
		During braking and coasting, the electric motors work as generators to charge the battery pack.
		The Astra Diesel Hybrid is propelled by a powerful 92-kw (125-horsepower) 1.7-liter CDTI engine with a maintenance-free particulate filter and by two electric motors, rated at 30 kw and 40 kw, respectively.
