Fig. 1: Distribution of driving patterns and energy use in electric vehicle trips.
From: Insights into adaptive cruise control and energy efficiency in electric vehicles
This figure presents summary distributions of key driving metrics across electric vehicle trips. a Trip distance distribution shows a strong skew toward short trips, with most under 20 kilometers and an average of 31 km. b Trip electric consumption distribution shows most trips fall between 15 and 50 kWh/100 km, with a fleet average of 27.5 kWh/100 km. c Trip speed distribution shows average speeds centered around 49 km/h (unweighted), and 66 km/h when time-weighted. d Trip time distribution indicates most trips last under 50 minutes, with an average of 28 minutes. Blue bars represent trip percentage count histograms; red lines represent cumulative trip percentages. km kilometers, kWh kilowatt-hours, km/h kilometers per hour, min minutes.
