Abstract
Abstract Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) reduce metropolitan city air pollution and traffic congestion. This paper evaluates the performance of the Toyota Prius, a passenger HEV model, in Paris and Cairo, using driving cycle data incorporated in the validated digital tool (Advanced Vehicle Simulator - ADVISOR ). The paper compares exhaust gas emissions and fuel consumption of the selected HEV in those two cities. The results show a reduction in exhaust gas emissions and fuel consumption in Paris than in Cairo and a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. The paper suggests that the HEV Toyota Prius is a suitable and sustainable solution for urban transportation in metropolitan cities.
