“…In addition, the high battery price meant that the savings in EV TCO value were insignificant. Several similar studies in Thailand [24] have also shown a similar case in battery replacement costs because of the absence of regulations regarding battery recycling efficiency and the minimum number of business actors engaged in this field [46].…”

The adoption of Electric Vehicles (EV) is one of the solutions to reduce emission problems. In Indonesia, the government targets 2.1 million Electric Motorcycles (EM) ownership in 2025. One of the keys to encouraging the EV Indonesian market is vehicle cost analysis, like Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). This study developed a TCO model to compare EM with Conventional Motorcycles (CM) in Indonesia. Data were collected from surveys and information from stakeholders. The proposed TCO model considered a battery replacement cost, which influenced the resale value of the vehicle. As a result, the TCO of EM had a more economical value than CM of 12% (IDR 3 million) on low mobility, 16% (IDR 4 million) on medium mobility, and 18% (IDR 5.5 million) on high mobility. In addition, several scenarios were also analyzed as a study to consider providing subsidies ownership motorcycles in Indonesia.

“…Furthermore, they have a high energy efficiency and a long lifespan [67]. In comparison to gasoline engines, the Zn-air range extender has lower tailpipe emissions [69]. However, there are some problems that need to be addressed before Zn-air can be used commercially in EVs.…”

“…The authors claimed that the potential is greater when combining a Zn-air battery with a Li-ion battery in a dual battery configuration. Catton et al [69] modeled and compared various powertrains including an REEV with Zn-air, a conventional gasoline powered vehicle, a fuel cell vehicle, and an REEV with ICE. The comparison criteria included energy consumption, range, life cycle and tailpipe emissions, cost, and consumer acceptance.…”

Emissions from the transportation sector are significant contributors to climate change and health problems because of the common use of gasoline vehicles. Countries in the world are attempting to transition away from gasoline vehicles and to electric vehicles (EVs), in order to reduce emissions. However, there are several practical limitations with EVs, one of which is the “range anxiety” issue, due to the lack of charging infrastructure, the high cost of long-ranged EVs, and the limited range of affordable EVs. One potential solution to the range anxiety problem is the use of range extenders, to extend the driving range of EVs while optimizing the costs and performance of the vehicles. This paper provides a comprehensive review of different types of EV range extending technologies, including internal combustion engines, free-piston linear generators, fuel cells, micro gas turbines, and zinc-air batteries, outlining their definitions, working mechanisms, and some recent developments of each range extending technology. A comparison between the different technologies, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of each, is also presented to help address future research needs. Since EVs will be a significant part of the automotive industry future, range extenders will be an important concept to be explored to provide a cost-effective, reliable, efficient, and dynamic solution to combat the range anxiety issue that consumers currently have.
