Advanced Propulsion / Powertrain / Electrification 

Over 200 hours of technical content has been developed by session organizers for the powertrain/propulsion engineer or engineering manager. They have compiled experts from ICE, hybrid and full electric vehicles, to discuss critical challenges, development and case studies on technologies involved in driveline, engine boosting, fuel economy, fuel injection, IVT/CVT, new engine development, motor and power electronics, batteries, as well as fuel cells.

 WCX annually features over 80, multi-part sessions, over 3 days, related to propulsion technologies. We are seeking experts who will share their knowledge and experiences through the publication and presentation of a paper or oral only talk.  Abstracts are being accepted on the below topics that address critical pain points on which engineers are seeking solutions to help them solve day to day vehicle development issues.

Submission period:
June 1 - September 13, 2022

If your submission is selected by the SAE committee, you will share your technical paper and present your work at WCX 2023.
