Výběr vhodného druhu pohonu automobilu z pohledu ekologie

The topic of the diploma thesis is the issue of fuel consumption and exhaust emissions of passenger cars. In the first part I deal with the development and types of internal combustion engines. Subsequently, by the breakdown of exhaust emissions, emission limits in the past and the outlook on the future. Furthermore, the work describes the basic principles of hybrid and electric cars. In the second part I deal with the selection of individual types of engines on one model of the Mercedes-Benz brand, I try to approach the technology used and the main differences of individual engines. Subsequently, the individual engines are compared on the test route in terms of total fuel consumption and the amount of CO2 emissions produced. The aim of the work is to select a suitable motorization from the point of view of ecology. All important findings and results of the comparison are given in the conclusion.
