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.

First I run advisor in MATLAB, THEN choose start then choose "EV_DEFAULTS_IN" in the load file and change the cargo mass to 500kg.

After clicking continue, I get the following results,

it can be seen that the time for the cycle is 2.4s and the distance is 17.77km. so using the CYC.FTP it is not possible to go 45km with this cargo mass.

Q2 In the above case, try changing the battery capacity and repeat the simulation.

it drived the same distance
