Abstract

Making the transition from conventional combustion vehicles (CVs) to electric vehicles (EVs) requires the users to be comfortable with the limited range of EVs. We present a system named ELVIS that enables a direct comparison of energy/fuel consumption, CO2 emissions, and travel-time between CVs and EVs. By letting users enter their everyday driving destinations ELVIS estimates the fuel consumption and whether the users can replace their CV with an EV, optionally by charging the EV at certain stops for a number of minutes. In this demonstration the popular CV Citroën Cactus is compared to the popular EV Nissan Leaf. It is shown that for a typical scenario it is possible reduce CO2 emissions by 28% when substituting a CV for an EV. ELVIS bases its estimations on 268 million GPS records from 325 CVs and 219 million records from 177 EVs, annotated with fuel/energy consumption data.
