Week-3 Challenge: ADVISOR Tool
1. For EV_defaults_in file, if cargo mass is 500 kg with all other default conditions, can the vehicle travel for 45 km with FTP drive cycle? Conclude your observations.
Ans:-
By selecting FTP Cycle and pressing RUN button.
From the above result we can conclude that SOC falls to zero or it ran out of battery so for one FTP drive cycle it travels to only 11 Km. To travel for 45 Km we need atleast 4 drive cycle.
2. In the above case, try changing the battery capacity and repeat the simulation.
Ans:-2 By changing the battery capacity from 25 to 50. 
By increasing battery capacity, it can be concluded that it travels 53.1 km with 3 FTP drive cycle.
3. Perform gradeability test with PRIUS_Jpn_defaults_in file
Ans:-3 By varying speed from 10 to 50 mph differet values of gradeablitiy ca be observed.
Speed Gradeability
| 10 mph | 30% |
| 20 mph | 19.8% |
| 30 mph | 14.7% |
| 40 mph | 11.7% |
| 50 mph | 9.7 % |
As we can see that, as speed increases the gradeability decreases.At 10 mph the gradeability is high and at 50 mph the gradeability is less.
