The objective of the review presented was to obtain data on all of the traction drives that are commercially available in the United States. A secondary objective was to select those drives that might have potential for use in the main drive train of automotive vehicles. In order to achieve the secondary objective, it was necessary to identify all of those characteristics of each drive that concerns the way in which it would perform in an automotive application. A brief discussion is given of each of the more important of these characteristics. There is also a sketch of each of the general configurations of traction drives commercially available. At this time, there is not enough data available about the characteristics of the power source or of the vehicle to make possible a selection of a specific type of drive for further study.
