For detailed evaluation of the Total Cost of Ownership, expenditures for Maintenance & Repair as well as the resale value are important to consider and should not be neglected. However, information on Maintenance & Repair costs as well as residual values for commercial vehicles with alternative powertrains is missing and data on this issue is rare. There is a lack of information and consolidated knowledge. In order to enable a holistic cost assessment for commercial vehicles, a comprehensive M&R cost model was developed by the use of a bottom-up approach, considering 46 individually assessed components regarding maintenance and 24 individually assessed components regarding repair as well as different inspections. It enables specific M&R cost calculations for different alternative commercial vehicle powertrain technologies of different vehicle sizes. In addition, an approach in order to assess the resale value for different alternative commercial vehicle powertrain technologies is introduced. Exemplary results are presented for different powertrain technologies of a tractor-trailer in long-haulage operation with a gross vehicle weight of 40 ton and a rigid truck in urban operation with a gross vehicle weight of 12 ton. Altogether, by the use of the M&R methodology and the resale value approach required data in order to enable a holistic cost assessment for commercial vehicles can be provided.
