Economic benefits models for different types of new energy vehicles

In the context of growing demands for energy conservation and emissions reduction, green logistics has become a focal point in the logistics industry. However, the adoption of new energy vehicles requires substantial capital investment, necessitating an assessment of the economic benefits and overall operational costs of different vehicle types. This study establishes a comprehensive cost calculation model for three types of new energy vehicles: battery electric vehicles (BEV), hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), and fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV). The model not only considers purchase costs but also analyzes energy consumption costs and their cost trends over time. Through comparative analysis of economic benefits at different distances in current and future stages, this study reveals the long-term economic advantages of new energy vehicles compared to Internal Combustion Engine Vehicles (ICEV). The results indicate that driven by continuous technological advancements, BEV demonstrates superior long-term economic benefits compared to ICEV.
