  • Abstract
    This article presents a methodology for efficiency and performance evaluation in electric vehicles (EVs) in different segments (cars, motorbikes, bicycles and vehicles for massive transportation), that allows to characterize its real behavior in Bogotá, where the performance is affected by local conditions, such as weather, geography, driving and culture. The methodology includes a procedure which covers instruments´ specification according to standards, criteria and selection of road test, and information analysis by calculating various indicators.
