Economic efficiency of motor transport оп the electric type. Part 1
The analysis of the tendency and problems of rolling stock development on the motor transport complex is given. Statistical indicators of the transition of vehicles to electric traction, government measures to support the purchase of green cars are given. In the role of the evaluation criterion of the economic efficiency of cars, it is suggested to use the indicator TCO. A comparative evaluation and analysis of the economic efficiency of passenger and cargo electric vehicles with cars of the same class equipped with internal combustion engines was carried out. It has been established that, for economic reasons, electric vehicles, in the calculation for the whole period of operation, are not inferior to cars operating on oil fuel. A comparative analysis of the economic efficiency of the Tesla Semi electric truck with a diesel road train is carried out.
