Using models they built and data from more than 10 million taxi trips in NewYorkCity, they found that the cost of service provided by a fleet of shared automated electric vehicles (SAEVs) would be $0.29-$0.61 The minimum fleet size falls to 6,470 vehicles at battery ranges of 70 miles and greater.
Motiv’s electric step vans have a range of up to 90 miles with a top speed of 60 mph; battery packs are available in 106 kWh or 127 kWh configurations. The USPS has a long history of testing electric vehicles for city delivery; the first known test of an electric vehicle for mail collection was in Buffalo, NewYork on 2 July 1899.
If successful, the Bronx-based project is expected to bring a production version of the converted truck to the streets of NewYorkCity by Spring 2018.

Researchers at Georgia Tech have compared medium-duty (MD) electric and diesel urban delivery trucks in terms of life-cycle energy consumption, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and total cost of ownership (TCO). One surprise among their findings was that the electric truck had cost advantages over the diesel vehicle under some conditions.
Also, the 40-foot buses eliminated the emissions of approximately 2,000 pounds (907 kg) of nitrous oxide and 150 pounds of particulate matter annually that would otherwise have spewed into local residential neighborhoods in the borough of Queens in NewYorkCity, where the aerodrome is located.
By cutting red tape and avoiding costs for construction and electrical work, combined with free solar energy, Beam Global says its EV ARC systems can offer customers a lower total cost of ownership compared to grid-tied charging stations. They’re charging their own fleet vehicles. We do the same thing in less than one hour.
Rodrigue notes that in central areas of large cities, cruising may account for more than 10% of the local circulation as drivers can spend 20 minutes looking for a parking spot. —The High Cost of Free Parking. miles) on average, costs car owners €1.35 (US$1.54), with an environmental impact of 1.3 Shoup, Donald.
The CityCat model will clock out at 68 mph with a driving range of 125 miles. The cost of a fill up is approximately $2.00. If the manufacturers have no surprises up their exhaust pipes the car will be practical and reasonably priced. Refueling is simple and will only take a few minutes.
The far higher volumes of carbon dioxide per mile from heavy trucks make them an obvious target for zero-emission powertrains. It had a 264 kWh battery pack powering the tractor’s twin motors with more than 4,000 lb-ft of torque and a range estimated at up to 150 miles. Rising fuel-economy standards during the 2020s will do the same.
Where it falls down is its EPA-rated range: a mere 208 miles. A pre-production XC40 Recharge I drove for an hour last October through rolling suburban hills outside NewYorkCity drew little attention, perhaps due to its muted, elegant silvery-green color and black roof. That wouldn’t provide even 200 miles of range.
The average daily transit commute in the city is reportedly 13 miles. Interestingly, after Musk first announced Tesla plan to launch an autonomous driving service using its existing electric vehicles, a study from the University of Virginia, and the University of Texas at Austin tried to estimate the cost of such a service.
Only available in California and Oregon, its appeal was challenged by an 84-mile all-electric driving range (AER) that had long been surpassed by competitors. All-new for 2024, the second generation Fiat 500e this time is available in all 50 states. When taking your test drive, listen for the music that plays at 20 miles per hour.
How about more than 520 miles? Or how about 32 miles on no gasoline at all as you chauffeur around the kids and do in-town errands? The EPA rates fuel economy, when using the hybrid gasoline-only engine at 30 miles per gallon. When combining gasoline and electricity that number jumps to 84 MPGe (miles per gallon equivalent).
In California, electricity costs for charging fleets could be up or down 400% in a single day. The first is the cost of electricity. You can’t dispatch a bus to drive out for the day’s 100-mile routes when you only have 20% state of charge left, so you need to have accuracy. How many miles a day? Which one is the truth?
I have long argued that self-driving cars are metaphorically miles away from being a reality. Meanwhile, Baidu leads in driving down the cost of robotaxi journeys. mile) ride in a robotaxi in Wuhan costs between 4 and 16 yuan ($0.60 billion new km (about 1 billion miles) every two months. A 10-kilometer (6.2-mile)
The vehicles worked well, but the costs were high at that time, and the company decided that the technology wasn’t mature enough for full commercialization. A few years ago, finding that EV tech had advanced, Mack decided to build an electric truck for a long-time customer, the NewYorkCity Department of Sanitation.
Oh, and could you get used to 32 miles of all-electric driving and 30+ mph when in hybrid mode? The plug means the 2021 Pacifica has a 32-mile all-electric driving range, which for most people is far more than they will drive in their daily routine. The battery recharge and electric mile range are metered instantly by dash gauges.
It certainly required a lot of capital and recruiting a world-class team here in Silicon Valley to be able to bite off something that big, but if you’re trying to penetrate a new electrification industry, range is certainly going to be the top metric that you’re weighed against. But that’s table stakes in our industry.
There are already spaces in NewYorkCity and Los Angeles, and there are now two in the San Francisco Bay Area, where I’m located. Range is 233 miles, which is good, if not the best in the market. Our road tests are based on this one-week drive of a new vehicle. Brakes if you need them. kilowatt-hours).

Zeem is able to offer a cost per mile below that of diesel, thanks to California subsidies. Do you run 150 miles, 200 miles or less? But where that scarcity issue is, is where all the fleets are: Chicago, NewYorkCity, primarily in the big cities where you’re going to get first-mover adoption.
Charge management software optimizes charging based on the available power, the schedules of the vehicles and the cost of electricity—from the rudimentary systems built into chargers to highly sophisticated systems that integrate with micro-grids or depot management.
Public transit buses are also steadily electrifying, led by California, NewYorkCity and the Washington, DC area as well as cities like Pittsburgh and Phoenix. These fleet owners will be challenged by the cost of building charging infrastructure and long — even multi-year — lead times for grid connections.

Studies differ about far drivers want to be able to go between charges.
Revel aims to promote EV adoption in cities by solving two interrelated problems: The company’s rideshare fleet generates demand to justify the cost of installing DC fast chargers, and its charging Superhub ensures that the fleet stays charged, while also offering charging to the public. It’s a kind of new time crunch.
A cap of say $200,000 includes 90% of US households and can still account for households living in very expensive markets such as San Francisco and NewYorkCity. miles per kWh with its 25 miles of EPA range and 8.8 But a minimum of 150-175 miles of range for BEVs could also make sense. kWh battery.
With NewYorkCity having decided to embrace European-style congestion charging as local residents express their displeasure, it might be wise to take time to look at other roadway initiatives that might soon migrate across the Atlantic to see how they’re fairing.
The Typical Lifespan of a Fleet Vehicle If a consumer vehicle drives 10,000 to 15,000 miles per year, a fleet vehicle can average 20,000 to 30,000 miles annually , and this increased mileage decreases lifespan. One study found that NewYorkCity’s fleet saved 75% in maintenance costs by switching to EVs.
