OVERVIEW OF ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY TRANSPORTATION, 2004 UPDATE

Since 2000, the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Advanced Vehicle Testing Activity (AVTA), formerly the Field Operations Program, has produced an annual overview of the transportation market. The document-which covers energy use, vehicle sales, emissions, potential partners, advanced technology vehicle availability, and other factors-offers a "snapshot" of current vehicle technologies and trends. DOE program managers use this document to plan testing and evaluation activities that focus resources where they have the greatest impact. This document is the update for 2004.
