In this review paper, we show that the current battery electric vehicle (BEV) scale-up relies
on several key technologies which all have detailed roadmaps with good track records for …

Replacing conventional materials (steel and iron) with lighter alternatives (eg, aluminum,
magnesium, and composites) decreases energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) …

Lightweight structures are increasingly necessary to meet current engineering requirements.
Weight reduction in diverse applications such as automobiles or machine tools is achieved …

Light-weighting of passenger cars using high-strength steel or aluminum is a common
emissions mitigation strategy. We provide a first estimate of the global impact of light …

For many years, regulation and life cycle studies have focussed on reducing the
environmental footprint of vehicles. Despite the implementation of different end-of-life …

Substituting conventional materials with lightweight materials is an effective way to reduce
the life cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from light-duty vehicles. However, estimated …

Lightweighting is today considered as one of the key strategies in reducing fuel consumption
