Introduction:  

With the recent introduction of electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles, exposure to electric and magnetic fields in those vehicles is becoming an important issue to drivers and passengers. The driver and passengers may have concerns about the possible health effects of magnetic fields in the same manner as they have for power lines and home electric appliances. In response to such concerns, the results of magnetic fields measurements in typical automobile vehicles (cars) are presented and compared with the ICNIRP guidelines. The magnetic field intensities are given in μT in this paper.
