Cover Story: The acceptance of Electric Vehicles (EVs) can be hindered from a consumer’s perspective by two main factors: the range anxiety and the charging infrastructure. To overcome the challenges, the trend is to design larger EVs with a longer range. However, some studies found that ultra-long-range EV might not be needed. In addition, such solutions can come with various burdens such as rising costs or an increasing demand in battery materials. Other solutions are therefore developed, including features to facilitate the execution of long trips. Such advanced features can include eco-driving or charging recommendations based on predictive models enhancing the accuracy of range estimations. In the paper, the benefits of these developments are assessed from an economic and environmental point of view. View this paper
