Analysis of factors affecting the energy consumption of an EV vehicle - a literature study

Abstract

Abstract One of the most requested information about an electric vehicle is its energy consumption. This parameter is particularly important for electric vehicles users who drive them in real conditions. This paper aims to conduct literature research on the factors affecting the energy consumption of a vehicle. The article contains a set of information concerning how the temperature, traffic conditions, or properties of an electric vehicle translate into energy consumption. The results of studies presented in various publications were compared. The literature analysis allowed for the creation of a list that can be used as a compendium of knowledge on the energy consumption of electric cars.
