Abstract

Alternative vehicles should ideally cost no more than the conventional gasoline vehicles to speed market acceptance. While new technology vehicles will initially cost more, the goal should be to have equal or lower cost in the long term when these alternative vehicles are mass produced. This chapter summarizes a bottom-up assessment of alternative vehicle costs and also reviews two major studies of the likely mass production costs of alternative vehicles: one by Kromer and Heywood at MIT, and the other by the consulting firm McKinsey & Company.

This work originated at Directed Technologies, Inc. in the mid-1990s under contract to the Ford Motor Company, whose main costing analyst taught James and his team the Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA) methodology of Boothroyd Dewhurst, Inc. DTI was subsequently acquired by Strategic Analysis, Inc., where James and his team continue their detailed assessment of fuel cell costs for the Department of Energy.

In Appendix E, we do include a markup to reflect prices for a stationary fuel cell system, since we are using prices for other equipment in that appendix.

Actually, other components of the BEV will be heavier and costly more as the range increases. Thus, the BEV body, the suspension system, the brakes will all have to become larger and more costly as the BEV mass grows with range, but estimating the cost of these vehicle components affected by mass compounding was beyond the scope of this book.
