摘要

Viewing from the angle of consumers, the life cycle costs (LCCs) of medium/low speed electric vehicles (MLSEV) and conventional fuel vehicles (CFV) are analyzed and compared, and a parameter of benefit sensitivity is introduced to compare their superiorities, with the focus put on the analysis on the effects of future fuel price, battery price and battery life on LCC. Finally the application feasibilities of lead-acid battery and Li-ion battery are discussed, and it is found that under the current conditions of market and technical level, the MLSEV with lead-acid battery already has superiority over the conventional fuel vehicle of same grade in LCC. As for Li-ion battery, with current prices of fuel and batteries unchanged, only when its service life reach 150,000 km can it match CFV in LCC.
