Abstract

Supplying enough power and energy during vehicle operation is one of the key elements in competitive automotive industry. In other words, providing the feeling of smooth operation brings the vehicle a step further when compared to its competitors. So, the main goal behind this research is to examine vehicles with three different powertrain systems and observe their behavior over different drive cycles. Vehicle performances are analyzed under different categories such as consumption (i.e., electricity, fuel), economic perspective, and emission point of view. Since vehicle electrification is a hot topic in Turkey, researchers add a real-life road simulation of Istanbul-Adapazarı Road into perspective alongside regulative drive cycles to try and provide an insight of BEV and HEV behavior, in detail. All three vehicles are modeled on MATLAB/Simulink and the outcomes of simulations are presented in this study.
