Vietnam is accelerating its electric mobility transition to meet national net-zero targets, yet the energy benefits of this shift remain underexplored under real-world traffic conditions. This study develops a Simcenter AMESim-based energy consumption model using Hanoi-specific, GPS-derived driving cycles to quantify the efficiency improvement of electric vehicles (EVs) compared with internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs). The model is validated with manufacturer data (error < 3%) and applied to four representative vehicle segments - sedan, hatchback, van, and SUV - under three traffic scenarios: Urban Peak, Urban Off-peak, and Highway. ICEV fuel consumption data (L/100 km) are converted into equivalent energy (Wh/km) using the lower heating value of gasoline for consistent comparison. Results show that EVs consume 14–60% less energy, with the greatest advantage observed in urban peak traffic due to regenerative braking and higher part-load efficiency. These findings provide quantitative insights into the energy impacts of Hanoi’s green-vehicle transition, offering a data-driven reference for policymakers and infrastructure planners to support Vietnam’s sustainable transport strategies.

摘要

Vietnam is accelerating its electric mobility transition to meet national net-zero targets, yet the energy benefits of this shift remain underexplored under real-world traffic conditions. This study develops a Simcenter AMESim-based energy consumption model using Hanoi-specific, GPS-derived driving cycles to quantify the efficiency improvement of electric vehicles (EVs) compared with internal combustion engine vehicles (ICEVs). The model is validated with manufacturer data (error < 3%) and applied to four representative vehicle segments - sedan, hatchback, van, and SUV - under three traffic scenarios: Urban Peak, Urban Off-peak, and Highway. ICEV fuel consumption data (L/100 km) are converted into equivalent energy (Wh/km) using the lower heating value of gasoline for consistent comparison. Results show that EVs consume 14–60% less energy, with the greatest advantage observed in urban peak traffic due to regenerative braking and higher part-load efficiency. These findings provide quantitative insights into the energy impacts of Hanoi’s green-vehicle transition, offering a data-driven reference for policymakers and infrastructure planners to support Vietnam’s sustainable transport strategies.
