The Bedford Van was tested in test track, chassis dynamometer, and urban-road settings. Vehicle dc energy consumption and driving range were measured on the SAE J227a C schedule driving cycle, the TVA urban driving route, and at constant speeds. Other tests measured the top speed, maximum acceleration, hill climbing, and braking performance of the vehicle. This report presents test results, data on vehicle operating characteristics, descriptions of the vehicle and components, and information on reliability during the test period.
