Electric and conventional vehicle driving patterns

Published:04 November 2014Publication History

ABSTRACT

The electric vehicle (EV) is an interesting vehicle type that can reduce the dependence on fossil fuels, e.g., by using electricity from wind turbines. A significant disadvantage of EVs is a very limited range, typically less than 200 km. This paper compares EVs to conventional vehicles (CVs) for private transportation using two very large data sets. The EV data set is collected from 164 vehicles (126 million rows) and the CV data set from 447 vehicles (206 million rows). Both data sets are collected in Denmark throughout 2012, with a logging frequency of 1 Hz. By comparing the two data sets, we observe that EVs are significantly slower on motorways, faster in cities, and drive shorter distances compared to CVs.
