Eventually, as demand volume grows significantly, OEM production will become the predominant mode because of its lower cost (and, possibly, better quality). An EV produced by the OEM will have a lower cost than one produced by external conversion, although the difference in cost may not be great.
The lowest cost of manufacture (and the lowest MSRP) for an EV is achieved by direct, high-volume OEM production. The cost is lower when the vehicle is based on an established high-volume platform rather than a totally new design.
An EV produced by the OEM will have a lower cost than one produced by external conversion, although the difference in cost may not be great. The most likely approach an OEM could use during introduction is production of an EV model based on an existing conventional vehicle or platform.
These data come from Tables 6.1 and 6.3 and from a Delphi study by Vyas et al. (1997). In the above calculation, we used the OEM battery costs per unit of energy storage as material plus $150, from Table 6.3.
The EV's electric drive components, which currently have very high costs, could be produced in large quantities at reasonable cost. The EV body can be designed to accommodate batteries, which represent the most likely energy storage device for EVs, without increasing the overall vehicle cost.
When the OEMs decide to produce their own EVs, they will have to choose between a totally new, “ground-up” design and a modification of an existing vehicle. From the cost and performance standpoint, an original design would be the preferred solution, if the production volume were high enough to justify it.
