Even so, the victory of motor vehicles over the horse was not quick or easy. The 20 million horses used for transportation in the United States in 1900 swamped by a factor of 10,000 the few thousand motorized vehicles on the road at the time. The gasoline car was not even the leading competitor to the horse. They shared the motorized vehicle market with battery electric and steam powered vehicles (Cannon, 1995). Despite the advantages of motorized vehicles, opposition was strong because the new fuels and technologies were disruptive. Very few farmers became oil drillers and even fewer stable boys became automotive engineers. Hundreds of thousands of jobs were lost in the transition. [Pg.4]

The overall objective of the TAFV model is to assess the competitive market outcome over time, with and without possible new policy initiatives. Rather than taking fuel and vehicle prices and penetration rates as an input, they are determined from market conditions. Operationally, this is equivalent to maximizing consumer and producer surplus, or well-being, from transportation services provided by light duty vehicles, essentially... [Pg.194]

The barriers to new fuels and technologies are real and economically important. Some barriers are transitional, and some barriers will endure so long as overall market conditions—including oil prices and environmental policies—do not change fundamentally. We find that static equilibrium analysis of the prospects for new vehicle technologies can be misleading. [Pg.200]

Overall, the market barriers to significant alternative fuel and vehicle use are substantial. We find that in the absence of any new and substantial... [Pg.209]

In 1981, the Dutch company TNO in cooperation with the New Zealand government converted a gasoline engine to a flexible fuel vehicle by adding a fuel sensor. The sensor deterrnined the amount of oxygen in the fuel and then used this information to mechanically adjust the carburetor jets. [Pg.426]

Vehicle manufacturers must build cars and tmcks that operate well on available fuels. They also specify the fuel requirements of their vehicles. Euel marketers must produce fuels that operate in both new and old vehicles. The consumer, the purchaser of the fuel and the vehicle, wants the fuel to be affordable, readily available, and able to provide a high level of performance. Regulators check that fuels are labeled properly and meaninghilly and that no unwarranted claims are made. They also regulate emissions from vehicles as well as the fuels used. [Pg.178]
