Vehicles; with both spark-ignition internal combustion reciprocating piston engine and electric motor for propulsion, capable of being charged by plugging to external source of electric power

HS v2017 Code: 870360

About vehicles; with both spark-ignition internal combustion reciprocating piston engine and electric motor for propulsion, capable of being charged by plugging to external source of electric power

hs code 870360 covers a unique category of vehicles that combine a traditional internal combustion engine with an electric motor, allowing for both conventional and electric propulsion. This hybrid technology has gained significant traction in recent years as automakers strive to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions, making these vehicles an important part of the broader transportation industry.

Production process

The production of vehicles under hs code 870360 involves the integration of several key components. First, a spark-ignition internal combustion engine is manufactured, typically using advanced engine design and materials to optimize performance and efficiency. In parallel, an electric motor and battery system are developed, capable of providing supplementary power and enabling the vehicle to be charged from an external electricity source. The final assembly process then seamlessly integrates these two propulsion systems, along with other vehicle components, to create a cohesive and functional hybrid powertrain.

Production inputs

The production of vehicles under hs code 870360 requires a range of inputs, including raw materials such as steel, aluminum, and various plastics for the vehicle body and components. Specialized engine and electric motor components, as well as advanced battery technology, are also essential inputs. Additionally, the manufacturing process relies on a variety of machinery, tools, and skilled labor to assemble the final product.

Production outputs

Vehicles classified under hs code 870360 are primarily intended for personal and commercial transportation, serving as a bridge between traditional internal combustion engine vehicles and fully electric vehicles. The output of this industry can be consumed by a wide range of end-users, including individual consumers, businesses, and government entities. Other related hs codes that may consume the output of this industry include 870321 Vehicles; with spark-ignition internal combustion reciprocating piston engine, of a cylinder capacity not exceeding 1,000 cc and 870322 Vehicles; with spark-ignition internal combustion reciprocating piston engine, of a cylinder capacity exceeding 1,000 cc.
