Abstract

This paper analyzes the charging and driving behavior collected from thousands of North American Ford full battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) whose owners utilize the MyFord Mobile smart phone app, thus enabling aggregated data for analysis. The trends investigated include charging frequency, electric vehicle miles travelled (eVMT), daily miles driven, and other factors.
Keywords: charging; data acquisition; North America; PHEV; case study charging; data acquisition; North America; PHEV; case study
