Accelerated testing was completed in September
2008 and the final results can be found in the
table to the right. The Renault Kangoo operated in
all-electric mode during all of the 40-mile and
shorter test cycles. During the 60- and 80-mile
test cycles, both the electric motor and gasoline
engine were required to propel the Kangoo. Note
that the 100- and 200-mile cycles were not
performed due to gasoline engine and inverter
failures.
Based on an electricity cost of 10 cents per kWh,
the total fuel cost for the Kangoo was 3.27 cents
per mile for electricity when in all-electric mode.
Again using 10 cents per kWh for electricity and
a gasoline cost of $3.00 per gallon, during the 60-
and 80-mile cycles, the fuel cost was 0.81 cents
per mile for electricity and 7.08 cents per mile
for gasoline (at 42.4 mpg), for a total fuel cost of
7.89 cents per mile for the Renault Kangoo.
While not a perfect comparison, the Ford HEV
Escape averaged 27 mpg in AVTA testing, so the
conventional HEV Ford Escape fuel cost would
average 11.11 cents per mile.
Energy efficiency and
clean, renewable energy
will mean a stronger
economy, a cleaner
environment, and greater
energy independence for
America. Working with a
wide array of state,
community, industry, and
university partners, the U.S.
Department of Energy’s
Office of Energy Efficiency
and Renewable Energy
invests in a diverse
portfolio of energy
technologies.
