Research on Energy Consumption Test Methods of Light-Duty Pure Electric Vehicles Based on China Automobile Test Driving Cycle

Abstract Referring to GB/T 18386-2017, the impact of NEDC, WLTC and CLTC on the energy consumption of pure electric vehicle is simulated and analysed. Combined with the characteristic parameters of the driving cycles, from the perspective of energy flow loss of each system of the vehicle, the influences of driving cycles on the energy consumption of each part of the vehicle and the working efficiency of the power components are analyzed in detail, and the internal mechanism of the influence rule of driving cycles on energy consumption is revealed. Based on the CLTC, the effects of load mass, ambient temperature and air conditioning on the energy consumption of the electric vehicle are explored. The research results show that the electric vehicle has the longest driving range and the lowest energy consumption under CLTC; as the loading quality increases, the driving range decreases, and the energy consumption per 100 kilometers increases; test temperature and the air conditioner have a great influence on the driving range, especially in the low temperature environment.
