[sumo-user] How to model different type of vehicles based on the engine

[Alberto Coello <coloalcoloal@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all,

I have been trying to model a hybrid city bus, with the combustion engine being diesel, as I have seen in the online sumo documentation the only two alternatives sumo provides are PHEMlight and HBEFA. The PHEMlight included in sumo only supports PC vehicles so I can't use it to model a  bus. The HBEFA models seems to include heavy duty vehicles, but are this models already implemented in SUMO? or do I have to buy them as an external software? how can I know what means each vehicle class in HBEFA?. I mean, what does represents "SMW80er Jahre 28-32t"? this classes of vehicles I am talking about are in the sumo documentation: https://sumo.dlr.de/docs/Models/Emissions/HBEFA-based.html

The thing is:

1. How can I make use of these vehicle classes?
2. How can I check the type of vehicle this classes represents(Heavy duty, light duty, diesel, gasoline, electric, hybrid, etc)?
3. Are there are any hybrid vehicles models?, specifacally hybrid buses with the combustion engine being diesel.

Thanks a lot,

Alberto
