Abstract
The present study discusses the performance of the electric two-wheeled vehicles on the basis of their running conditions in present day traffic in the urban regions. In this study, survey based results and experimental outcomes were compared with that of the conventional IC engine counterpart for the road conditions in the city of Kolkata. The specific energy consumption of the electric variants were found to be 155.64kJ/km and 114.5kJ/km from the experimental and survey results, respectively, compared to 810kJ/km of the conventional two-wheelers. The specific energy cost and the specific CO2 emission were also obtained from the study.
