Development of Test Procedure for used EVs

A standardized test for used EVs in the Nordic region.

EV sale building up

• More EVs available from different

car producers, growing market.

• This also means a growing second-

hand market where eliminating risk and uncertainty for both seller and buyer is important.

+ 463 so far this year + 1500-2500 in 2011?

Norway  Less than 500 in Sweden & Denmark Very few in Finland www.gronnbil.no

Development of test procedure for used EVs

• NAF-test is used to determine a car’s condition prior to a

transaction (objective evaluation). Battery not included. A need to:

• Benefit a growing second-hand market for used EVs.
• Help second-hand buyers and sellers get an objective

assessment.

• Make it easier to compare, buy and sell used Evs across boarders.

Partners

• The Norwegian Automobile Federation (NAF), Norway
• Federation of Danish Motorists (FDM), Denmark
• Autoliitto (AL), Finland
• Bilprovningen, Sweden
• Think, Norway
• Norstart - Norwegian Electric Vehicle Association, Norway
• Norsk Miljøpark for Trafikk og Motor AS, Norway

Key objectives/Goals

• Develop a test procedure for used EVs (WP1).
• Prepare one designated NAF test center in the Oslo region

with equipment and training to perform the test (WP2).  The project will deliver a standardized test method for used EVs, that can be deployed to car test-centers where applicable.

WP1: Develop test methodology

• Main workload: developing a method to test battery status.
• Key tasks: Define different customer related situations and

specific needs the test should answer to.

• Essential: Customer focus throughout the whole process.

WP2: Implement test methodology at a designated NAF center

• Designating a NAF test center.
• Buy necessary hardware.
• Install hardware and train test personnel to carry out the

test as developed and described in WP1.

Activities

• Kick off with all partners: 14th of April 2011 in Oslo
• Work group meetings: 18/2, 29/4, 5/5 ++
• Trying out the test on a reference group with EV-owners:

September/October

• End of project partner meeting: November

Long-term goal

• The different test partners make the test available for

customers, in a growing market.

• Depends on costs, market demand etc.

 The project will focus on potential customers’ needs and aims to find a cost-effective way to offer an EV-test that meet these needs.
