The Government of India has recently announced the National Electric Mobility Mission Plan, which sets
ambitious targets for electric vehicle deployment in India. One important barrier to substantial market
penetration of EVs in India is the impact that large numbers of EVs will have on an already strained elec-
tricity grid. Properly predicting the impact of EVs on the Indian grid will allow better planning of new
generation and distribution infrastructure as the EV mission is rolled out. Properly predicting the grid
impacts from EVs requires information about the electrical energy consumption of different types of
EVs in Indian driving conditions. This study uses detailed vehicle powertrain models to estimate per kilo-
meter electrical consumption for electric scooters, 3-wheelers and different types of 4-wheelers in India.
The powertrain modeling methodology is validated against experimental measurements of electrical
consumption for a Nissan Leaf. The model is then used to predict electrical consumption for several types
of vehicles in different driving conditions. The results show that in city driving conditions, the average
electrical consumption is: 33 Wh/km for the scooter, 61 Wh/km for the 3-wheeler, 84 Wh/km for the
low power 4-wheeler, and 123 Wh/km for the high power 4-wheeler. For highway driving conditions,
the average electrical consumption is: 133 Wh/km for the low power 4-wheeler, and 165 Wh/km for
the high power 4-wheeler. The impact of variations in several parameters are modeled, including the
impact of different driving conditions, different levels of loading by air conditions and other ancillary
components, different total vehicle masses, and different levels of motor operating efficiency.

1. Introduction
India is one of the world’s most rapidly growing economies, and
is the third largest vehicle market in the world. Annual demand of
vehicles is rapidly growing in India, with 2020 annual projected
sales of 10 million passenger vehicles, 2.7 million commercial vehi-
cles, and 34 million two-wheelers. India currently imports about
85%of itsoil and is projected to reach 92% by 2020, creatinga signif-
icant challenge for the balance of payments and the energy security
of the country [1]. Based on the pressing challenges with growth in
vehicle sales and energy security facing the country, the Central
Government of India has released the National Electric Mobility
Mission Plan (NEMMP) [1] which establishes a pathway for thewidespread deployment of hybrids, plug-in hybrids, and electric
vehicles in India. The NEMMP calls for the deployment of 5–7 mil-
lion EVs (hybrids and full EVs) on the roadby 2020, and the Govern-
ment of India has committed Rs 22,500 cr (approximately $4.1
Billion USD) to this initiative. Similar goals for widespread electric
vehicle adoption have been set by other governments around the
world [2–4].
The rapid deployment of plug-in hybrid and fully electric vehi-
cles (collectively called plug-in vehicles, PEVs, in this paper) called
for in the NEMMP places significant demands on an already
strained electricity grid in India [5]. However, since range anxiety
is a significant consumer perception barrier to EV deployment

[6], the absence of reliable charging points (which require a stable
electricity grid) in India will make it difficult to achieve the tar-
geted levels of EV market penetration. Additionally, if the electric-
ity grid is unable to accommodate PEV charging, it is possible that
diesel generators will be used to provide the unmet electricity de-
mand. Although this local distributed generation solution may
accommodate PEV charging demand in the interim, it is not an
effective way to decouple the Indian transportation sector fromoil and can still lead to urban air quality problems.
The Government of India has recently joined the Electric Vehicle
Initiative (EVI) of the Clean Energy Ministerial, which seeks to facil-
itate the deployment of 20 million EVs by 2020. Under this initia-
tive, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory is supporting the
NEMMP in assessing the real-world costs, benefits and environ-
mental impacts of EV uptake in India; this publication is the first
in a series of studies in this effort.
To properly plan for the rapid deployment of PEVs in India,
there is a need for finely resolved temporal and spatial predictions
of PEV charging load on the electricity grid. The ability to properly
forecast PEV charging load is essential for utility grid operators to
ensure that adequate generation capacity is available at the correct
times, and ensure that distribution infrastructure can accommo-
date substantial PEV charging. Several studies [7–13] have devel-
oped methods to estimate PEV charging load for the US
electricity grid. The most rigorous of these studies [14–16] follow
a three-step methodology (listed below) to predict temporally re-
solved PEV charging load profiles. A modeling tool, called V2G-
Sim, has been developed at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
to streamline the simulation of vehicle-grid interactions and this
tool is available for use in potential research collaborations [17].
1. Estimating the time when vehicles are plugged in: Survey data is
used to provide information on how drivers use their vehicles,
including number of vehicle trips per day, time of departure
of each trip, trip travel length, arrival time of each trip, type
of vehicle, etc. In the United States, a common data source for
this information is the National Household Travel Survey(NHTS) [18], however other data sources have also been used.
2. Estimating the amount of energy required to charge the vehicle
battery: Typically, a simplified vehicle model is used to esti-
mate: (a) how much of the vehicle battery is depleted during
each trip, and (b) how much energy is required during charging.
A standard approach in prior studies [14–16] is to assume a
constant value for electrical consumption (kWh/km or kWh/
mile) depending on the type of vehicle (i.e. car, van, SUV, truck,
etc.) that is being modeled. More accurate estimates of battery
depletion while driving can be obtained with detailed vehicle
physics models (such as models used in other papers), however
this approach may be prohibitively computationally expensive
when attempting to model hundreds, thousands, or millions
of PEVs on an electricity grid.3. Estimating charging rates while a vehicle is plugged in : Using esti-
mates of when different vehicles will plug in for charging from
step 1, how much charging is required from step 2, and infor-
mation about the charging rate (i.e. level 1, level 2, or DC fast
charger), number of PEVs and any smart charging strategies,
aggregate charging load profiles are estimated for a large num-
ber of vehicles within a given region (i.e. utility service territory,
state, or country).
Successful implementation of the NEMMP within the prescribed
timeline requires immediate planning and infrastructure deploy-
ment to ensure that the Indian electricity grid can cope with the
added charging load from large numbers of PEVs. Thus, the 3-step
analysis methodology described above must be applied to the In-dian context, however much of the required data for India is not
available in published studies. For instance, for step 1 better data
is required to characterize vehicle usage patterns in India. For step
2, average electrical consumption (Wh/km) numbers are required
for vehicles specifically in the Indian context (i.e. for vehicle sizes
representative of typical Indian vehicles driving in Indian traffic
conditions). The use of prior published electrical consumption val-
ues does not adequately account for typical Indian vehicles or for
the influence of driving and usage factors (i.e. from dense traffic,or the use of power-consuming devices like an air conditioner).
Electrical consumption data for scooters, 3-wheelers, and small
4-wheelers has previously been unavailable in the literature, par-
ticularly for the Indian context where driving conditions will be
different than in developed countries and air conditioning load will
be a significant factor. For the Indian context in particular, it may
be inappropriate to use prior published Wh/km values because
two-wheelers and ultra-compact four-wheelers that are typical
in India are significantly smaller and lighter than the US market,
and typical driving conditions are different in India with more fre-
quent stopping, lower average speeds and potentially more sudden
acceleration and deceleration [19].
In support of the NEMMP and as a step towards predicting the
charging load of PEVs on the Indian electricity grid, the results pre-
sented in this study will enable better estimates of PEV charging
load on the Indian electricity grid. Specifically, the results of this
study provide Wh/km values that are representative of typical
vehicles in India, driving in conditions representative of Indian
roads. The results of this study can then be used in Step 2 of the
3-step methodology above to estimate temporally resolved PEV
charging loads on the Indian electricity grid.
2. Specific objectives
In support of the India National Electric Mobility Mission Plan,
this study provides critical data to enable detailed predictions of
PEV temporal charging load profiles for the Indian electricity grid.
Detailed vehicle powertrain modeling is used for:
1. Providing estimates of average electrical consumption
(Wh/km) for vehicles that are representative of typical
Indian two-, three- and four-wheel vehicles over drive
cycles that are representative of Indian driving conditions.
2. Providing correlations for the Wh/km results that account
for variations in vehicle use, such as variability in vehicle
mass, the use of air conditioners, and variations in power-
train component efficiency.
3. Vehicle models
3.1. Vehicle powertrain models
A detailed vehicle powertrain model is used to estimate electri-
cal consumption for four types of vehicles, with specifications for
each vehicle listed in Table 1. The powertrain models are created
in the industry standard Autonomie powertrain modeling platform.
3.2. Drive cycles
Given that energy consumption of a vehicle depends signifi-
cantly on driving patterns [19–25], several different drive cycles
are chosen. Five drive cycles are chosen based on Indian driving
conditions, including a New Delhi cycle [26], Pune cycle [27], the
modified Indian drive cycle (MIDC) [28], and an Indian urban and
Indian highway cycle. Additionally three US certification cycles
are also included for comparison purposes, the EPA UDDS, HWFETand US06 cycles [29]. Figs. 1–4 compare the characteristics of each

drive cycle in terms of velocity, stopping/idling, acceleration and
deceleration characteristics. The values in these figures are nor-
malized by the average values across all driving cycles to allow
easier comparisons.
Fig. 1 compares the velocity characteristics of the US and Indian
drive cycles. The plot shows that driving conditions on the Indian
cycles involve lower maximum speed, lower mean speed, and low-
er mean driving speed1. Even the speeds on the Indian highway cy-
cle are considerably lower than the speeds on the US highway cycles.
Fig. 2 compares the stopping and idling characteristics of the US
and Indian drive cycles. As expected, the results show that stop fre-
quency and fraction of total time stopped are much higher on the
city cycles as compared with the highway cycles. Of particular
importance, Fig. 2 shows that stop frequency is much higher in
the Indian city cycles than the US city cycle. The total fraction of
time stopped is highest in the Pune cycle, followed by the US city
cycle.
Fig. 3 compares the acceleration characteristics of the US and
Indian drive cycles. The highest acceleration values are seen in
the high speed US highway cycle (US06). Comparing the US and In-dian city cycles, it is seen that greater maximum acceleration and

maximum acceleration from stop values are encountered in the In-
dian city cycles, however the average acceleration is higher in the
US city cycle.
Fig. 4 compares the deceleration characteristics of the US and
Indian drive cycles. The results show that maximum deceleration
and maximum deceleration to stop are higher in Indian city condi-
tions than US city conditions, however higher levels of average
deceleration are seen in the US city cycle.Summarizing the results in this section, Figs. 1–4 compared the
drive cycle characteristics for the US and Indian drive cycles. It was
generally observed that the Indian drive cycles involve lower driv-
ing speeds, greater frequency of stopping, and higher levels of
maximum acceleration and deceleration. These results suggest that
driving in India may involve more severe stop-and-go conditions,
and previous studies [19,25] have found that these types of driving
conditions create unique opportunities for achieving greater levels
of fuel savings with vehicle electrification.
3.3. Parametric variations
In addition to the vehicle speed profiles while driving, other
parameters will significantly influence vehicle energy consump-tion as well. The vehicle modeling that is discussed in this paper
captures the impact on vehicle energy usage from several parame-
ters that will change with different vehicle designs, usage patterns,
and driving conditions. For warm climates like India, ancillary
components such as vehicle air conditioning load will have a
significant impact on energy consumption [30–31]. Loading the
vehicle with more passengers or cargo will also impact energy
consumption. Additionally, variations in powertrain component
efficiency will also impact energy consumption. Table 2 lists the
range of parameter variations that were explored using the vehicle
powertrain models for their impact on vehicle energy
consumption.
3.4. Model validation
To ensure that the electrical consumption estimates presented
in the results section of this paper are reasonable, the same mod-
eling methodology is followed to create a powertrain model for a
Nissan Leaf electric vehicle, for which there are well documented
values of electrical consumption under various driving conditions.
A vehicle powertrain model was constructed with specifications
resembling a Nissan Leaf, and electrical consumption model esti-
mates were compared against published measurement data [32]
for the EPA UDDS, Highway, and US06 drive cycles over a range
of total vehicle mass. Fig. 5 shows a comparison of the modeled
and measured electrical consumption values for a Nissan Leaf.
The modeled and experimentally measured electrical consump-
tion values plotted in Fig. 5 show that the vehicle powertrain mod-el reasonably predicts both the trends and absolute values of
electrical consumption for a range of different vehicle masses for
all three drive cycles. The largest difference in absolute values
between the model and the experimental measurements is
11.50%, which occurs for the lowest vehicle mass on the highway
cycle. It is typically the case that increased vehicle mass leads to
increased energy consumption, however the experimental
measurements on the highway cycle do not display this expected
trend. This may be due to experimental error because obviously
the vehicle mass will have a significant influence on the electricity
consumption of a vehicle. This expected trend is indeed seen for
the UDDS and US06 experimental measurements, thus the data
points at the lowest mass values for the highway cycle seem higher
than expected. As a result of the overall agreement of trends and
absolute values shown in Fig. 5, the modeling methodology is con-
sidered accurate enough for the purposes of this study.
4. Results
4.1. Baseline electrical consumption estimates
Table 1 lists the vehicle specifications that were used in the
powertrain models for an electric scooter, electric 3-wheeler, low
power EV 4-wheeler and high power EV 4-wheeler. These power-
train models provide the electrical consumption per kilometer esti-
mates over several different drive cycles in Fig. 6 and Table 3. There
are several numerical values in Fig. 6 which are crossed out (partic-
ularly for the electric scooter and 3-wheeler). These crossed out
values denote that the vehicle was unable to perform on the drive
cycle, either because the drive cycle requests speeds which are
higher than the maximum speed capability of the vehicle, or
because acceleration profiles are demanded which exceed the
capabilities of the powertrain components. Thus, these crossed

out values should not be given much weight but instead simply
considered for reference.
The results in Fig. 6 show that electrical consumption per kilo-
meter is highest for the 4-wheelers and lowest for the electrical
scooter, which comes as no surprise given the differences in vehi-
cle mass. For the vehicles which are capable of sustaining highway
speeds (i.e. only the 4-wheelers), electrical consumption is signifi-
cantly higher for high speed highway driving.
4.2. Impact of parameter variations on vehicle electricity consumption
The electrical consumption was calculated for several vehicles
on several US and Indian drive cycles in Section 4.1, with specifica-
tions defined in Table 1. Vehicles on the road, however, will rarely
have exactly the same specifications as those defined in Table 1,
thus this section explores how different parameters will impact
electrical consumption of each vehicle.
4.2.1. Ancillary component and air conditioning loads
For hot climates like India, energy use by air conditioners will
have a significant impact on the electricity consumption of a vehi-
cle. Additionally, other ancillary components (like vehicle control
electronics, radio, and lights) will consume energy. Fig. 7 presents
the impact on vehicle electricity consumption from different levels
of loading by ancillary components. As two- and three-wheelers
typically do not have an enclosed cabin they will not have air con-
ditioners, and thus their maximum loading from ancillary compo-
nents will be lower. Thus, in Fig. 7 the modeled range of energy
consumption from ancillary components for the two- and three-
wheel vehicles is much lower than for the four-wheelers.
Fig. 7 shows that for each vehicle on all the different drive cy-
cles, vehicle electricity consumption (Wh/km) increases linearly
with increasing loading from ancillary components. It is particu-
larly important to note that the slope of this linear increase is dif-
ferent across the different drive cycles. The equation of fit for the
relationship between ancillary component loading and vehicle
electricity consumption follows the form of Eq. (1), where x is

the electrical loading in kW, m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept
(in this case, the electrical consumption if there was no loading
from ancillary components). Values for m and b for each vehicle
on each drive cycle are listed in Table 4.
y ¼ mx þ b ð1Þ
The fitting equation parameters in Table 4 shows that the slope
of each fitting equation for a given drive cycle is not sensitive to
vehicle type. The slopes are generally higher for lower speed driv-
ing conditions. These results suggest that ancillary component
loading has a greater impact on vehicle electricity consumption
at lower speed driving conditions (i.e. city driving), and is not sen-
sitive to vehicle type.
4.2.2. Variations in vehicle, passenger and cargo mass
Individual vehicles are bound to be loaded with different mass
due to variations in the number of passengers or cargo being car-ried. Fig. 8 shows the impact of variations in total vehicle mass
for each vehicle on each drive cycle. The 3- and 4-wheelers will
have greater carrying capacity and thus the range of vehicle masses
modeled is larger for these vehicles.
Fig. 8 shows that vehicle electricity consumption is also linearly
dependent on vehicle mass, with increased electricity consumption
for greater total vehicle mass. The equation of fit relating changes
in vehicle electrical consumption with changes in vehicle mass fol-
lows the form of Eq. (1) as well, with x being vehicle mass in kg.
Table 5 lists the coefficients for the equations of fit for variations
in vehicle mass. The fitting coefficients in Table 5 suggest that
the impact of vehicle mass on vehicle electricity consumption is

fairly consistent across the different drive cycles and across the dif-
ferent vehicles (especially the 3-wheeler and both 4-wheelers).
4.2.3. Variations in average motor efficiency
The values chosen for the motor efficiency maps used for the
baseline vehicle simulations (in Section 4.1) were established to
fit the Nissan Leaf model validation results in Section 3.4. Electric
vehicles released in the Indian market, however, may use differenttypes of motors with different efficiency operating profiles, thus
this section explores the impact of changes is motor operating effi-
ciency. Fig. 9 shows the variation of vehicle electricity consump-
tion with average motor operating efficiency for the different
vehicles driving on the different drive cycles.
As expected, the results in Fig. 9 show that vehicle electricity
consumption decreases as a more efficient motor is used. A partic-
ularly interesting result, however, is that changes in motor effi-
ciency have very little impact on electricity consumption for the
smaller vehicles, especially the two-wheeler. This result is of sig-
nificant importance as it suggests that the use of less expensive
motors, which may be less efficient, can be used to lower the cost
of electric scooters while having minimal impact on vehicle elec-
tricity consumption (and thus vehicle range). For the larger vehi-
cles and for higher speed driving conditions (i.e. on highways),
however, motor efficiency impacts electrical consumption signifi-
cantly and thus better motors must be used. The results for the lar-
ger vehicles in Fig. 9 show that the relationship between vehicle
electricity consumption and motor efficiency is not perfectly linear
(i.e. a slight curvature can be seen on the plots), however the R2 fit-
ting parameters in Table 6 show that a linear equation of the form
of Eq. (1), with x being the average motor efficiency (%), produces a
good fit.
5. Conclusions
Given the ambitious targets for electric vehicle deployment in
India under the National Electric Mobility Mission Plan whichwas announced by the Government of India, there are significant
concerns with the impact that EV charging will have on an already
strained Indian electricity grid. This study is part of a larger effort
towards estimating the impact on the Indian electricity grid from
substantial deployment of EVs on the Indian grid to subsequently
plan the deployment of new generation and distribution
infrastructure.
This study used detailed vehicle powertrain models to estimate
the per kilometer electrical consumption of several types of EVs,
including a scooter, a 3-wheeler, a low power 4-wheeler, and a
high power 4-wheeler. Electrical consumption data for scooters,
3-wheelers, and small 4-wheelers has previously been unavailable
in the literature, particularly for the Indian context where driving
conditions will be different than in developed countries and airconditioning load will be a significant factor. The powertrain model
methodology was validated against experimental measurements
for a Nissan Leaf. The main conclusions from this study are as
follows:
1. Average electrical consumption: Vehicle size has the greatest
impact on per km electrical consumption, followed by the
driving characteristics (i.e. city vs. highway driving). In city
driving conditions average electrical consumption results were:
33 Wh/km for the scooter, 61 Wh/km for the 3-wheeler, 84 Wh/
km for the low power 4-wheeler, and 123 Wh/km for the high
power 4-wheeler. For highway driving conditions average elec-
trical consumption results were: 133 Wh/km for the low power
4-wheeler, and 165 Wh/km for the high power 4-wheeler. The
scooter and 3-wheeler were incapable of sustaining highway
speeds. Readers are referred to Section 4.1 for a detailed break-
down of electrical consumption for different driving conditions.
2. Impact of air conditioners and ancillary component loads on elec-
trical consumption: Ancillary components have a significant
impact on electrical consumption, with per km electrical con-
sumption increasing linearly with greater ancillary component
loads. The slope of increasing electrical consumption is largerfor lower speed driving conditions (i.e. in cities), but is not sen-
sitive to vehicle type.
3. Impact of variations in vehicle mass on electrical consumption: Per
km electrical consumption also increases linearly with increas-
ing vehicle mass (i.e. for more passengers or cargo). The slope of
increase is fairly consistent across different driving conditions
and vehicle types.
4. Impact on variations in motor efficiency on electrical consumption:
Per km electrical consumption decreases linearly with greater
motor operating efficiency, however the slope of this decrease
is highly sensitive to vehicle size. An important finding is that
for smaller vehicles, like scooters, increasing motor efficiency
has little impact on electrical consumption. As a result, the
use of inexpensive and less efficient motors to minimize the
cost of electrical scooters will only have minimal impact on
electrical consumption and thus on EV range. For larger vehi-
cles, however, motor efficiency has a significant impact, with
more efficient motors allowing significantly reduced electrical
consumption. For larger vehicles there is also an impact of driv-
ing characteristics, with higher speed driving conditions show-
ing greater variation of electrical consumption with changes in
motor operating efficiency.

Appendix A.
This Appendix presents a brief description of the powertrain
and component models that are used to model the four types of
electric vehicles considered in this study. For a detailed description
of each model, readers are referred to the documentation associ-
ated with the commercially available powertrain modeling soft-
ware Autonomie, which was used in this study.
A.1. Overall powertrain architecture
The electric vehicle models in Autonomie include the compo-
nent models shown in Fig. 10, as well as an overarching propulsion
and brake control model.
The propulsion control model translates driver acceleration
commands, which are governed by the specified drive cycle, into
motor torque demands while simultaneously considering vehicle
and motor speed, battery state of charge, maximum torque output
before wheel slip at a given speed, and loading from ancillary
components.
The braking control model performs a similar function of trans-
lating driver braking commands, which are governed by the spec-
ified drive cycle, into braking torque demands while considering
several factors and constraints. One further function of the braking

model is to specify the braking torque provided by the traction
motor and the mechanical brakes. In general, braking torque is
provided entirely by the traction motor until the motor or
battery power limits are encountered. Beyond these limits,
mechanical braking is used to absorb the remaining required brak-
ing torque.
A.2. Battery model
The battery model calculates the state of an individual cell and
assumes that all cells operate identically. Cell state of charge (SOC)
is calculated according to the coulomb counting approach in Eq.
(1):
SOC ¼
R I 3600
dt þ Ahinit
Ahmaxð1Þ
In Eq. (1), I is the charging or discharging current requested from
the battery, Ahinit is the amount of energy stored in the battery
when the model is initialized, and Ahmax is the maximum energy
storage capacity of the battery as a function of cell operating tem-
perature, as shown in Eq. (2):
Ahmax ¼ f ðT cellÞ ð2Þ
The values for Ahmax are specified in an initialization file using mea-
surement data for the maximum capacity of a cell that is discharged
at a C /5 rate.
The open circuit voltage and the internal resistances of the cell
on charging or discharging are determined as a function of SOC and
cell temperature, as shown in Eq. (3) through Eq. (5) respectively:
V OC ¼ f ðSOC;T cellÞ ð3Þ
Rint;chg ¼ f ðSOC;T cellÞ ð4Þ
Rint;dis ¼ f ðSOC;T cellÞ ð5Þ
Open circuit voltage and internal resistance data on charging anddischarging is specified in an initialization file based on experimen-
tally measured data. For lithium ion batteries, open circuit cell volt-
age typically spans a range from 3.5 to 4.2 V.
The cell output voltage at any given operating condition (i.e. at
the battery terminals) is calculated using Eq. (6) for charging and
Eq. (7) for discharging:
V out ;chg ¼ V OC gcoulI out Rint;chg ð6Þ
V out ;dis ¼ V OC I out Rint;dis ð7Þ
gcoul is the coulombic efficiency, which for these models is simplyset to 1.0.
A simple thermal model is included as part of the battery model
to estimate the cell operating temperature. The rate of heat gener-ation in a cell is calculated according to Eq. (8) while charging and
Eq. (9) while discharging:
_Q gen;chg ¼ I 2out Rint;chg V out I out ð1 gcoulÞ ð8Þ
_Q gen;dis ¼ I 2out Rint;dis ð9Þ
Heat dissipation is calculated by assuming a fan flows cooling air
across the cells within a pack. Eq. (10) is activated when the cell
temperature rises above a specified threshold to cause the battery
management system to turn the cooling fan on.
_Q cooling ¼ T module air T moduleThermal resistance
ð10Þ
In situations where the cooling fan remains off, Eq. (10) is simply setto zero. The module air temperature is calculated using Eq. (11):
T module air ¼ T air 1=2_Q cooling
_mcooling airC p;moduleð11Þ
Finally, the module temperature is calculated through the bal-
ance of heat generation and heat dissipation rates in Eq. (12),
and it is assumed that each cell within the module will have the
same temperature.

A.3. Motor model
The motor model provides the torque demanded by the propul-
sion controller, while taking into account the effects of losses and
rotor inertia. Motor temperature is used to determine the time that
the motor can spend above the maximum continuous rated torque
levels.
The maximum continuous torque is specified in an initialization
file for a full range of motor speeds according to experimental data.
The absolute maximum torque output is specified according to
a predefined value for continuous to peak torque ratio. The
motor efficiency map is specified for a full range of torque and
speed points in the initialization file using experimentally
measured data. The motor model inputs are the command to the
motor (i.e. required propulsion torque), the input voltage, and
the motor speed.
The maximum propulsion and regenerative torque capabilities
of the motor are determined as a function of motor speed. The
maximum torque map (as a function of speed) is specified in the
vehicle initialization file. The specified torque map enables maxi-
mum torque at low speeds (up to roughly 2000 RPM) and subse-
quently decaying maximum torque up to the high speed limits of
the motor.
Section 4.2.3 of this paper examines the impacts of different
levels of motor efficiency for the vehicles that are modeled. Motorefficiency is scaled by multiplying the efficiency map specified in
the initialization file by a scaling factor. The scaling factor is de-
fined as the ratio of desired maximum motor efficiency over the
maximum efficiency specified in the map defined in the initializa-
tion file.
A.4. Torque coupling, final drive and wheel model
The final drive and torque coupling models are functionally
similar, and serve to apply a fixed gear reduction ratio to both tor-
que and speed by taking into account the losses. The torque cou-
pling and final drive are assumed to be 97% efficient across the
entire torque/speed range.
The wheel model serves to transform rotational energy into lin-ear. Losses from mechanical braking and tire friction are calculated
within this model. Linear force exerted or absorbed by the tires is
calculated using Eq. (13):
F ¼ T =r wheels ð13Þ
In Eq. (13), T is the total input or output torque to the tires, and
r wheels is the wheel radius. Torque input or output is calculated
using Eq. (14):
T ¼ T in T braking T res ð14Þ
In Eq. (14), T in is the torque input from the vehicle powertrain,
T braking is the braking torque exerted by the mechanical brakes,
and T res is the resistive torque from tire rolling resistance which iscalculated using a third-order polynomial function of speed. The

coefficients for the polynomial are specified in an initialization file
based on experimentally measured data.
A.5. Chassis model
By balancing the total powertrain output against the total
opposing forces, the linear acceleration and vehicle speed is finally
calculated at the chassis model. Powertrain output (or regenerative
input) is calculated at earlier sub-models based on the specified
drive cycle and the specified component parameters. Opposing
forces include factors such as hill climbing, aerodynamic losses,
and tire rolling resistance.
Aerodynamic losses are calculated within the chassis model
using Eq. (15):
F loss;aero ¼ 1=2qC d AV 2 ð15Þ
In Eq. (15), q is the density of air, Cd is the vehicle drag coefficient, A
is the frontal area of the vehicle, and V is the vehicle speed.
Opposing force from hill climbing is calculated using Eq. (16):
F loss;hill ¼ mg sinðhÞ ð16Þ
In Eq. (16), m is the vehicle mass, g is the acceleration from gravity,
and h is the hill grade.
The acceleration of the vehicle is subsequently calculated using
Eq. (17):
a ¼ F in F loss
mstatic þ mdynamic ð17Þ
In Eq. (17), F in is the input from the vehicle powertrain, F loss is the
sum of all opposing forces, mstatic is the static mass of the vehicle
and mdynamic is the dynamic mass of the vehicle from rotating com-
ponents. Vehicle speed is calculated by integrating Eq. (17) over
time.
A.6. Ancillary components models
Power losses from ancillary components (such as air condition-
ing and electronic in-vehicle equipment) are calculated as a spec-
ified continuous power draw. The power that is flowed to
ancillary components is assumed to travel through a power con-
verter which maintains its output voltage at the required voltage
input for ancillary components (i.e. 12 V). The power converter is
assumed to have 95% conversion efficiency.
