Performance and cost are projected for compact-size electric pickup trucks, suburban or panel trucks, and vans. By means of a computerized model, the curb weight, range between recharges, use of electric energy, initial costs, and life-cycle costs are projected for battery fractions ranging from 20 to 40 percent of curb weight. Improved and advanced levels of vehicular technology are considered with future lead-acid, nickel-zinc, or lithium-sulfur batteries, leading to representative designs with ranges of 160, 240, and 360 kilometers, respectively. The corresponding curb weights, energy requirements, and life-cycle costs for a given range are very sensitive to the average operating payload, rising about 50 percent as operating payload increases from a nominal test load of 136 kilograms to 1180 kilograms, the maximum considered for the compact trucks.
