Starting with classic automotive systems, this volume provides the reader with a systematic view of modern motor vehicles. In addition to pure function, it also addresses the modeling of individual (sub-)systems, allowing the reader to develop a deep understanding of the underlying principles. This new, revised second edition contains a new chapter on the user-vehicle interface.
