Analysis of Parameters Influencing Electric Vehicle Range

Abstract Range is considered as a key parameter of electric vehicles. Increasing electric vehicles range is important for acceptance of electro mobility. Battery capacity is the main parameter influencing electric vehicles range. In order to batteries are the most expensive part of electric vehicle is it suitable to focus on others parameters such a weight, aerodynamic drag coefficient or correct size of motor. Range is not influencing only by the designs parameters such as battery capacity but also important is driver influence. Simulations were created in order to determine how is influencing those factors range. For better accuracy was used real driving cycles.
