Abstract: The need for more efficient and renewable means of transport makes the development of hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) an important topic for both automobile manufacturers and academic researchers. Noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) of a vehicle are important factors for vehicle users and essential for successful commercialization of this vehicle type. This paper is a compact state-of-the-art review of both NVH characteristics and relevant suppression methods for HEVs. The NVH-related problems are categorized into three categories: engine, powertrain, motor-related. A detailed overview of each category/problem-type is provided, the NVH-suppression methods for different types of HEVs are introduced, and their respective advantages discussed. In addition, emerging developments and ideas for future improvements are summarized. As a result, the paper should be particularly helpful for researchers, who are interested in the development of high-performance HEVs that can provide both substantially improved ride-comfort and reduced energy-consumption.
