This study aims to delve into the nuances of energy consumption in Electric Vehicles (EVs) across varied driving conditions, including city, urban, and highway cycles. The primary focus is to discern the least energy-consuming cycle and identify the phases within each trip where energy consumption is most prominent. Using On-Board Diagnostics (OBD) programs on a real-time test subject EV, this research observes the energy consumption of EVs during different driving cycles. Energy consumption will be analysed in relation to parameters such as speed and acceleration, aiming to pinpoint precise values of energy consumption and identify the most efficient energy utilization in each cycle. In addition to speed and acceleration, this study aims to identify other factors influencing energy consumption, seeking to understand subtle details of each parameter’s effect.
Uncovering these intricacies is crucial for optimizing the energy consumption efficiency of EVs in diverse driving cycles. The outcomes of this investigation will serve as valuable insights for enhancing the overall efficiency of electric cars. As the world pro-grasses towards sustainable transportation, understanding how to optimize energy consumption in EVs becomes imperative for a more environmentally friendly future.
The real-time sample will be a Volkswagen ID.3 58 kWh (240 hp), complete electric vehicle with a net battery output of 55 kWh, a Lithium-ion (Li-Ion) battery located under the floor, based on RDE test, all-electric range of 421 km ideally, rear wheel drive with single speed transmission.
