EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BYD Motors Inc. submitted a model K7, electric-powered 23 seat (including the driver) 30-foot bus, for a 12 yr/500,000 mile STURAA test. The odometer reading at he time of delivery was 2,460 miles. Testing started on February 26, 2016 and was completed on March 27, 2017. The Check-In section of the report provides a description of the bus and specifies its major components. The primary part of the test program is the Structural Durability Test, which also provides the information for the Maintainability and Reliability results. The Structural Durability Test was started on March 17, 2016 and was completed on January 17, 2017. The interior of the bus is configured with seating for 23 passengers including the driver. Free floor space will accommodate 18 standing passengers resulting in a potential load of 41 persons. At 150 lbs per person, this load results in a measured gross vehicle weight of 28,190 lbs. The first segment of the Structural Durability Test was performed with the bus loaded to a GVW of 28,190 lbs. The middle segment was performed at a seated load weight of 25,770 lbs and the final segment was performed at a curb weight of 21,880 lbs. Durability driving resulted in unscheduled maintenance and failures that involved a variety of subsystems. A description of failures, and a complete and detailed listing of scheduled and unscheduled maintenance is provided in the Maintainability section of this report. Effective January 1, 2010 the Federal Transit Administration determined that the total number of simulated passengers used for loading all test vehicles will be based on the full complement of seats and free-floor space available for standing passengers (150 lbs per passenger). The passenger loading used for dynamic testing will not be reduced in order to comply with Gross Axle Weight Ratings (GAWR s) or the Gross Vehicle Weight Ratings (GVWR s) declared by the manufacturer. Cases where the loading exceeds the GAWR and/or the GVWR will be noted accordingly. During the testing program, all test vehicles transported or operated over public roadways will be loaded to comply with the GAWR and GVWR specified by the manufacturer. Accessibility, in general, was adequate. Components covered in Section 1.3 (Repair and/or Replacement of Selected Subsystems) along with all other components encountered during testing, were found to be readily accessible and no restrictions were noted. The Reliability section compiles failures that occurred during Structural Durability Testing. Breakdowns are classified according to subsystems. The data in this section are arranged so that those subsystems with more frequent problems are apparent. The problems are also listed by class as defined in Section 2. The test bus encountered no Class 1 failures. Of the two Class 2 failures one occurred with an axle and one with the drive system. Of the remaining 21 reported failures 17 were Class 3 and four were Class 4. 1605 Page 4 of 141

The Safety Test, (a double-lane change, obstacle avoidance test) was safely performed in both right-hand and left-hand directions up to a maximum test speed of 45 mph. The performance of the bus is illustrated by a speed vs. time plot. Acceleration and gradeability test data are provided in Section 4, Performance. The average time to obtain 50 mph was 31.01 seconds. The Stopping Distance phase of the Brake Test was completed with the following results; for the Uniform High Friction Test average stopping distances were 29.41 at 20 mph, 57.15 at 30 mph, 96.22 at 40 mph and 127.07 at 45 mph. The average stopping distance for the Uniform Low Friction Test was 31.01. There was no deviation from the test lane during the performance of the Stopping Distance phase. During the Stability phase of Brake Testing the test bus experienced no deviation from the test lane. The Parking Brake phase was completed with the test bus maintaining the parked position for the full five minute period with no slip or roll observed in both the uphill and downhill positions. The Shakedown Test produced a maximum final loaded deflection of 0.049 inches with a permanent set ranging between -0.003 to 0.005 inches under a distributed static load of 15,375 lbs. The Distortion Test was completed with all subsystems, doors and escape mechanisms operating properly. Water leakage was observed during the test inside the upper rear corner of the engine compartment and inside the upper rear compartment. All subsystems operated properly. The Static Towing Test was performed using a target load (towing force) of 26,256 lbs. All four front pulls were completed to the full test load with no damage or deformation observed. The Dynamic Towing Test was performed by means of a frontlift tow. The towing interface was accomplished using a hydraulic under-lift wrecker. The bus was towed without incident and no damage resulted from the test. The manufacturer does not recommend towing the bus from the rear, therefore, a rear test was not performed. The Jacking and Hoisting Tests were also performed without incident. The bus was found to be stable on the jack stands, and the minimum jacking clearance observed with a tire deflated was 3.2 inches. A Fuel Economy Test was run on simulated central business district, arterial, and commuter courses. The results are available in Section 6. A series of Interior and Exterior Noise Tests was performed. These data are listed in Section 7.1 and 7.2 respectively. 1605 Page 5 of 141

TEST BUS CHECK-IN I. OBJECTIVE The objective of this task is to log in the test bus, assign a bus number, complete the vehicle data form, and perform a safety check. II. TEST DESCRIPTION The test consists of assigning a bus test number to the bus, cleaning the bus, completing the vehicle data form, obtaining any special information and tools from the manufacturer, determining a testing schedule, performing an initial safety check, and performing the manufacturer's recommended preventive maintenance. The bus manufacturer must certify that the bus meets all Federal regulations. III. DISCUSSION The check-in procedure is used to identify in detail the major components and configuration of the bus. The test bus consists of a BYD Motors Inc., model K 7. The bus has a front door, forward of the front axle, and a rear door centered between the axles which is equipped with a Ricon model RIFR2SS02-11000000 electric bi-fold handicap ramp. Stored power of 540 VDC at about 197 KWH of battery storage space provides power to 2-90 KW inwheel motors which supply torque to a gear reduction set of 13.5 : 1 ratio which splits the torque between the motor and the wheel. That torque is then delivered to a planetary system in the center of each drive wheel. The measured curb weight is 8,480 lbs for the front axle and 13,400 lbs for the rear axle. These combined weights provide a total measured curb weight of 21,880 lbs. There are 23 seats including the driver and room for 18 standing passengers bringing the total passenger capacity to 41. Gross load is 150 lb x 41 = 6,150 lbs. At full capacity, the measured gross vehicle weight is 28,190 lbs 1605 Page 7 of 141

2. RELIABILITY - DOCUMENTATION OF BREAKDOWN AND REPAIR TIMES DURING TESTING 2-I. TEST OBJECTIVE The objective of this test is to document unscheduled breakdowns, repairs, down time, and repair time that occur during testing. 2-II. TEST DESCRIPTION Using the driver log and unscheduled work order forms, all significant breakdowns, repairs, man-hours to repair, and hours out of service are recorded on the Reliability Data Form. CLASS OF FAILURES Classes of failures are described below: (a) Class 1: Physical Safety. A failure that could lead directly to passenger or driver injury and represents a severe crash situation. (b) Class 2: Road Call. A failure resulting in an en route interruption of revenue service. Service is discontinued until the bus is replaced or repaired at the point of failure. (c) Class 3: Bus Change. A failure that requires removal of the bus from service during its assignments. The bus is operable to a rendezvous point with a replacement bus. (d) Class 4: Bad Order. A failure that does not require removal of the bus from service during its assignments but does degrade coach operation. The failure shall be reported by driver, inspector, or hostler. 2-III. DISCUSSION A listing of breakdowns and unscheduled repairs is accumulated during the Structural Durability Test. The following Reliability Data Form lists all unscheduled repairs under classes as defined above. These classifications are somewhat subjective as the test is performed on a test track with careful inspections every two hours. However, even on the road, there is considerable latitude on deciding how to handle many failures. The Unscheduled Repair List is also attached to provide a reference for the repairs that are included in the Reliability Data Forms. 1605 Page 33 of 141

The classification of repairs according to subsystem is intended to emphasize those systems which had persistent minor or more serious problems. There were no Class 1 failures. Of the two Class 2 failures one occurred with the axle and one with the drive system. Of the 17 Class 3 failures, eight involved the electrical system, five occurred in the suspension system, two in the cooling system and one each with the brakes and a door. These, and the remaining four Class 4 failures are available for review in the Unscheduled Maintenance List, located in Section 5.7 Structural Durability. 1605 Page 34 of 141

3. SAFETY - A DOUBLE-LANE CHANGE (OBSTACLE AVOIDANCE) 3-I. TEST OBJECTIVE The objective of this test is to determine handling and stability of the bus by measuring speed through a double lane change test. 3-II. TEST DESCRIPTION The Safety Test is a vehicle handling and stability test. The bus will be operated at SLW on a smooth and level test track. The bus will be driven through a double lane change course at increasing speed until the test is considered unsafe or a speed of 45 mph is reached. The lane change course will be set up using pylons to mark off two 12 foot center to center lanes with two 100 foot lane change areas 100 feet apart. The bus will begin in one lane, change to the other lane in a 100 foot span, travel 100 feet, and return to the original lane in another 100 foot span. This procedure will be repeated, starting first in the right-hand and then in the left-hand lane. 3-III. DISCUSSION The double-lane change was performed in both right-hand and left-hand directions. The bus was able to safely negotiate the test course in both the right-hand and left-hand directions up to the maximum test speed of 45 mph. 1605 Page 36 of 141

4.0 PERFORMANCE 4.1 PERFORMANCE - AN ACCELERATION, GRADEABILITY, AND TOP SPEED TEST 4.1-I. TEST OBJECTIVE The objective of this test is to determine the acceleration, gradeability, and top speed capabilities of the bus. 4.1-II. TEST DESCRIPTION In this test, the bus will be operated at SLW on the skid pad at the PSBRTF. The bus will be accelerated at full throttle from a standstill to a maximum "geared" or "safe" speed as determined by the test driver. The vehicle speed is measured using a Correvit non-contacting speed sensor. The times to reach speed between ten mile per hour increments are measured and recorded using a stopwatch with a lap timer. The time to speed data will be recorded on the Performance Data Form and later used to generate a speed vs. time plot and gradeability calculations. 4.1-III. DISCUSSION This test consists of three runs in both the clockwise and counterclockwise directions on the Test Track. Velocity versus time data is obtained for each run and results are averaged together to minimize any test variability which might be introduced by wind or other external factors. The test was performed up to a maximum speed of 50 mph. The fitted curve of velocity vs. time is attached, followed by the calculated gradeability results. The average time to obtain 50 mph was 31.01 seconds. 1605 Page 39 of 141

4.0 PERFORMANCE 4.2 Performance - Bus Braking 4.2 I. TEST OBJECTIVE The objective of this test is to provide, for comparison purposes, braking performance data on transit buses produced by different manufacturers. 4.2 II. TEST DESCRIPTION The testing will be conducted at the PTI Test Track skid pad area. Brake tests will be conducted after completion of the GVW portion of the vehicle durability test. At this point in testing the brakes have been subjected to a large number of braking snubs and will be considered well burnished. Testing will be performed when the bus is fully loaded at its GVW. All tires on each bus must be representative of the tires on the production model vehicle The brake testing procedure comprises three phases: 1. Stopping distance tests i. Dry surface (high-friction, Skid Number within the range of 70-76) ii. Wet surface (low-friction, Skid Number within the range of 30-36) 2. Stability tests 3. Parking brake test Stopping Distance Tests The stopping distance phase will evaluate service brake stops. All stopping distance tests on dry surface will be performed in a straight line and at the speeds of 20, 30, 40 and 45 mph. All stopping distance tests on wet surface will be performed in straight line at speed of 20 mph. The tests will be conducted as follows: 1. Uniform High Friction Tests: Four maximum deceleration straight-line brake applications each at 20, 30, 40 and 45 mph, to a full stop on a uniform high-friction surface in a 3.66-m (12-ft) wide lane. 2. Uniform Low Friction Tests: Four maximum deceleration straight-line brake applications from 20 mph on a uniform low friction surface in a 3.66- m (12-ft) wide lane. When performing service brake stops for both cases, the test vehicle is accelerated on the bus test lane to the speed specified in the test procedure and this speed is maintained into the skid pad area. Upon entry of the appropriate lane of the skid pad area, the vehicle's service brake is applied to stop the vehicle as quickly as possible. The stopping distance is measured and recorded for both cases on the test 1605 Page 43 of 141

data form. Stopping distance results on dry and wet surfaces will be recorded and the average of the four measured stopping distances will be considered as the measured stopping distance. Any deviation from the test lane will be recorded. Stability Tests This test will be conducted in both directions on the test track. The test consists of four maximum deceleration, straight-line brake applications on a surface with split coefficients of friction (i.e., the wheels on one side run on high-friction SN 70-76 or more and the other side on low-friction [where the lower coefficient of friction should be less than half of the high one] at initial speed of 30 mph). (I) The performance of the vehicle will be evaluated to determine if it is possible to keep the vehicle within a 3.66m (12 ft) wide lane, with the dividing line between the two surfaces in the lane s center. The steering wheel input angle required to keep the vehicle in the lane during the maneuver will be reported. Parking Brake Test The parking brake phase utilizes the brake slope, which has a 20% grade. The test vehicle, at its GVW, is driven onto the brake slope and stopped. With the transmission in neutral, the parking brake is applied and the service brake is released. The test vehicle is required to remain stationary for five minutes. The parking brake test is performed with the vehicle facing uphill and downhill. 4.2-III. DISCUSSION The Stopping Distance phase of the Brake Test was completed with the following results; for the Uniform High Friction Test average stopping distances were 29.41 at 20 mph, 57.15 at 30 mph, 96.22 at 40 mph and 127.07 at 45 mph. The average stopping distance for the Uniform Low Friction Test was 31.01 There was no deviation from the test lane during the performance of the Stopping Distance phase. During the Stability phase of Brake Testing the test bus experienced no deviation from the test lane during both approaches to the Split Friction Road surface. The Parking Brake phase was completed with the test bus maintaining the parked position for the full five minute period with no slip or roll observed in both the uphill and downhill positions. 1605 Page 44 of 141

5.1 STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY 5.1 STRUCTURAL STRENGTH AND DISTORTION TESTS STRUCTURAL SHAKEDOWN TEST 5.1-I. DISCUSSION The objective of this test is to determine certain static characteristics (e.g., bus floor deflection, permanent structural deformation, etc.) under static loading conditions. 5.1-II. TEST DESCRIPTION In this test, the bus will be isolated from the suspension by blocking the vehicle under the suspension points. The bus will then be loaded and unloaded up to a maximum of three times with a distributed load equal to 2.5 times gross load. Gross load is 150 lb for every designed passenger seating position, for the driver, and for each 1.5 sq ft of free floor space. For a distributed load equal to 2.5 times gross load, place a 375-lb load on each seat and on every 1.5 sq ft of free floor space. The first loading and unloading sequence will settle the structure. Bus deflection will be measured at several locations during the loading sequences. 5.1-III. DISCUSSION This test was performed based on a maximum passenger capacity of 41 people including the driver. The resulting test load is (41 X 375 lb) = 15,375 lb. The load is distributed evenly over the passenger space. Deflection data before and after each loading and unloading sequence is provided on the Structural Shakedown Data Form. The unloaded height after each test becomes the original height for the next test. Some initial settling is expected due to undercoat compression, etc. After each loading cycle, the deflection of each reference point is determined. The bus is then unloaded and the residual (permanent) deflection is recorded. On the final test, the maximum loaded deflection was 0.122 Inches at reference point 3. The maximum permanent deflection after the final loading sequence ranged from -0.003 Inches at reference point 8 to 0.005 inches at reference points 6 and 7. 1605 Page 49 of 141

5.3 STRUCTURAL STRENGTH AND DISTORTION TESTS - STATIC TOWING TEST 5.3-I. TEST OBJECTIVE The objective of this test is to determine the characteristics of the bus towing mechanisms under static loading conditions. 5.3-II. TEST DESCRIPTION Utilizing a load-distributing yoke, a hydraulic cylinder is used to apply a static tension load equal to 1.2 times the bus curb weight. The load will be applied to both the front and rear, if applicable, towing fixtures at an angle of 20 degrees with the longitudinal axis of the bus, first to one side then the other in the horizontal plane, and then upward and downward in the vertical plane. Any permanent deformation or damage to the tow eyes or adjoining structure will be recorded. 5.3-III. DISCUSSION The load-distributing yoke was incorporated as the interface between the Static Tow apparatus and the test bus tow hook/eyes. The front test was performed to the full target test weight of 26,256 lbs (1.2 x 21,880 lbs CW). No damage or deformation was observed during all four pulls of the test. The manufacturer does not recommend towing from the rear, therefore a rear test was not performed. 1605 Page 65 of 141

5.7 STRUCTURAL DURABILITY TEST 5.7-I. TEST OBJECTIVE The objective of this test is to perform an accelerated durability test that approximates up to 25 percent of the service life of the vehicle. 5.7-II. TEST DESCRIPTION The test vehicle is driven a total of 15,000 miles; approximately 12,500 miles on the PSBRTF Durability Test Track and approximately 2,500 miscellaneous other miles. The test will be conducted with the bus operated under three different loading conditions. The first segment will consist of approximately 6,250 miles with the bus operated at GVW. The second segment will consist of approximately 2,500 miles with the bus operated at SLW. The remainder of the test, approximately 6,250 miles, will be conducted with the bus loaded to CW. If GVW exceeds the axle design weights, then the load will be adjusted to the axle design weights and the change will be recorded. All subsystems are run during these tests in their normal operating modes. All recommended manufacturers servicing is to be followed and noted on the vehicle maintainability log. Servicing items accelerated by the durability tests will be compressed by 10:1; all others will be done on a 1:1 mi/mi basis. Unscheduled breakdowns and repairs are recorded on the same log as are any unusual occurrences as noted by the driver. Once a week the test vehicle shall be washed down and thoroughly inspected for any signs of failure. 5.7-III. DISCUSSION The Structural Durability Test was started on March 17, 2016 and was conducted until January 17, 2017. The first 6,250 miles were performed at a GVW of 28,190 lbs. and completed on July 1, 2016. The next 2,500 mile SLW segment was performed at 25,770 lbs and completed on October 18, 2016, and the final 6,250 mile segment was performed at a CW of 21,880 lbs and completed on January 17, 2017. Note: Structural Durability Testing was performed at the heaviest load scenario. 2 wheelchair positions (1,200 lbs.) were loaded by folding away 4 seats (600 lbs.). This reduction of free floor space due to the area occupied by the wheelchair positions eliminated 2 standing passengers (18 to 16). Therefore, the Structural Durability Test was performed at the heaviest load configuration of 20 seated, 2 wheelchair positions and 16 standees. The following mileage summary presents the accumulation of miles during the Structural Durability Test. The driving schedule is included, showing the operating duty cycle. A detailed plan view of the Test Track Facility and Durability Test Track are attached for reference. Also, a durability element profile detail shows all the measurements of the different conditions. Finally, photographs illustrating some of the failures that were encountered during the Structural Durability Test are included. 1605 Page 76 of 141

5 Introduction and Scope of Document The purpose of this document is to report testing setup, data analysis and results of a fuel economy or more accurately, an energy consumption test performed at the Altoona Bus Test Center. This includes both on-road and charging energy consumption as well as phase specific average fuel economy and measured vehicle range. 1605 Page 102 of 141

6 Test Plan The energy consumption test includes both on-road driving and stationary charging. Sensors are installed and tested prior to the official start. Manufacture data for maximum battery temperature, battery system, State of Charge (SOC) and vehicle speed are requested via the vehicles CAN bus. Ideally, all manufacturers will provide Deutsch series DT connectors with live, when enabled, high voltage connection directly to the high voltage energy storage bus as well as approximately 1 square foot of space around a high voltage cable carrying the full bus current for DC bus current measurement. Please ensure all high voltage safety percussions are exercised. 6.1. Preparation: Current and voltage sensors are added to the bus between the battery system and all loads. Internal battery loads such as balancing functions are neglected. A Racelogic VBOX 3i GPS device is also used to monitor vehicle speed in real time as well as log for later data analysis. These sensors are integrated into an isolated CAN bus and logged during on-road testing. A Fluke 1730 power meter is attached to the power supply of the manufacturer s charger. This meters data are logged during all charges after any on-road energy consumption testing. All sensors and logging systems are tested by driving a minimum of two full laps and charging for a minimum of 10 minutes prior to official testing. Once preparation is complete testing may start. 6.2. Testing: 1) Fully charge the bus using manufacturer specific chargers and procedure a. A one hour of warm up is permitted prior to on-road testing but the bus must be fully charged prior to any official testing 2) Following a full charge and prior to initial vehicle movement data logging is enabled 3) Starting from the charger location the bus is driven to the start point on the test track 4) The bus is then driven in a counter clockwise direction around the track repeating the CBD, Arterial, CBD, Arterial, CBD, Commuter profile until the vehicles propulsion system isn t capable of keeping up with the required profile speeds 5) The bus is then driven directly to the manufacturer s charger 6) The power meter and its logging function is enabled 7) The bus is fully charged following the manufacturer s procedures 8) Steps 2 through 7 are repeated for clockwise direction. Note, testing of this bus did not include both clockwise and counter-clockwise test. Only one counter-clockwise test was performed due to time restrictions. (Approved by management 10/18/17) 1605 Page 103 of 141

6.3. Preliminary Data Validation: Following each test data is preliminary reviewed to ensure all systems remained functional throughout the testing. If any problems are found during this review the issues are presented to management for discussion and consideration for retest. 1605 Page 104 of 141

7 Test Setup A measurement of electrical power and energy was performed on the BYD EV bus #1605 while on-road in a charge depleting mode and while stationary in a charging mode. In both modes of operation electrical energy was measured by utilizing current and voltage sensors. All calibration certifications for these sensors are on file at the Altoona Bus Research and Testing Center. 7.1. On-Road Power and Energy Measurement While in an on-road energy consumption mode current and voltage of the electrical energy storage system / high voltage battery is measured and logged. A single current sensor was placed in between the high voltage battery and all exterior loads while a single voltage sensor was connected to the high voltage DC bus. Any power consumed internal to the energy storage system for devices such as a battery management system or functions such as cell balancing were not measured and are assumed to be negligible. The current and voltage sensors used in this test generate analog signals which in turn are converted by an analog to digital converter with CAN bus communication. The analog to digital converter scales measurements based on initial device configuration, tailored to the specific sensors and sends these raw measurements out on its associated CAN bus at a rate of 20ms. A CAN data logger is set to log all messages on this isolated CAN bus. A second CAN channel was integrated into the manufacturer s vehicle CAN bus to log vehicle speed, maximum battery/cell temperature and estimated battery SOC. A separate and dedicated 12V lead acid battery was used to power the analog to digital converter and CAN data loggers. The battery also supported an inverter to power a technicians PC which was also logging the same CAN data. This intent of this power supply configuration is to limit power drawn from the vehicle during testing. It s also worth noting that the high voltage DC voltage sensor may load the high voltage bus but this load is considered to be negligible. 7.1.1 High Voltage DC Current Sensor An AEMC brand model MR561 current probe was used along with an IPETRONIK high voltage current clamp isolator to generate the DC battery current analog signal. Current probe manual: http://www.aemc.com/products/pdf/1200.73.pdf High voltage isolator: https://www.ipetronik.com/sites/default/files/field_product_file/ipe_datasheet_iso_clamp_co nnector_prelim.pdf 1605 Page 105 of 141

7.1.2 High Voltage DC Voltage Sensor A high voltage isolator and divider was used to scale and isolate high voltage DC voltage bus measurements taking directly from the high voltage DC bus. This device also generates an analog voltage. High voltage isolator and divider: https://www.ipetronik.com/sites/default/files/field_product_file/ipe_datasheet_highvoltage_i so_divider.pdf 7.1.3 Analog to Digital Converter A four channel analog to digital converter with sensor excitation and CAN bus communication was used to convert the analog signals from the above current and voltage sensors to CAN messages. These CAN messages were then logged. df Analog to digital converter: https://www.ipetronik.com/sites/default/files/field_product_file/ipe_datasheet_m_sens2.p 7.1.4 Racelogic VBOX 3i GPS Is a powerful GPS receiver. To achieve a high level of accuracy the unit samples at 100 times per second. This device provides CAN output with vehicle position and speed. This speed is also displayed for the driver to maintain test speed. Vehicle odometers are not used as part of the test input. VBOX 3i GPS: https://www.vboxautomotive.co.uk/index.php/en/products/data-loggers/vbox-3i 7.1.5 CAN Logger A Vector CANtech CANcaseXL CAN bus tool along with a Microsoft Surface Pro3 were used to monitor, calculate and log data during testing. A second CANcaseXL Log device was also used to redundantly log the same data in case of device or logging failure. A PC running CANtech CANoe software was used to generate real time power and energy calculations based on current and voltage readings. Energy calculations and battery temperature were also manually recorded at the completion of each phase of testing. 7.1.5.1 Code used to calculate power and energy for manual data points The following code is executed on the technicians PC during testing. It calculates battery power and integrates this power to calculate energy. This information is used only as a manual data point during testing. Official reported energy consumption is post processed from logged current and voltage arrays to insure the highest resolution possible. Post processed data includes a calculation for every single data point recorded. The real time calculation is a timed function that samples at 100 ms. 1605 Page 106 of 141

This devices sensors are installed in between the buildings power service and the BYD charging station. All calibration certifications are on file at the Altoona Bus Research and Testing Center. Fluke 1730 3 Phase Energy Logger: http://www.fluke.com/fluke/m2en/power-quality-tools/logging-power-meters/fluke- 1730.htm?PID=77038 Fluke Energy Analyze V2.2 software package is used to extract recorded data from the Fluke 1730 power meter. This data is ultimately exported to a Matlab data file. 1605 Page 108 of 141

8 Data Analysis This section details the process of data analysis. Once all logged data is extracted from the logging devices a preliminary check is performed to determine if there were any discrepancies in the test procedure or data logging. Then data from multiple files are combined, if necessary, to create one file for the discharge and charge portion of each run. Finally, a point in between each completed phase or section of data is selected and calculated values for this point are reported. Vehicle range calculation is also covered in this section as well as the Fluke 1730 energy meter data analysis. 8.1. Logged Data Extraction All CAN data are logged using a Vector CANcaseXL Log or similar. This information is either extracted from the log device itself or a connected PC acting as the logging device. It is then processed through Vector CANoe software and exported into a Matlab data file format. During the export process all messages are exported to ensure the highest possible resolution. No interpolation is performed at this step. 8.2. Preliminary Check All files extracted from the logging device are then preliminary processed. This includes plotting data such as vehicle speed to ensure that the test was conducted properly. Current and Voltage data is also plotted to ensure the signals are within reasonable ranges and behave as expected. Finally a check for disruptions in the signals is performed. 8.3. Phase and Section Reporting Point Selection Phases and sections are selected manually based on both the technicians recorded phase time values and obvious stop points in between phases and or sections of the test. Test phases are the CBD, ART and Commuter drive profiles while test sections or non-profile miles consist of the drive form the charger to the start point and return from the track to the charge after the last completed phase. 1605 Page 109 of 141

Phase and Section Selection The vertical lines shown in the example data above represent the points selected as the separation of phases and sections. This run starts with a Drive to Start non-profile section followed by drive cycle profile miles as detailed in the test plan then completes with a Drive to Charger non-profile section. 8.4. Post Processing Analysis The following Matlab script sorts data and calculates power then integrates power to calculate energy using the following equations. (1) (2) %% Calculate and Sort %% Generate Time Scale Time = DC_Current(:,1); %% Speed Sensors - VBOX 3i GPS % Interpolate time from all sensors to the current/voltage time scale. speed = interp1(vbox3i_speed_mph(:,1),vbox3i_speed_mph(:,2),time); %% Calculate Power [Amperes,Volts,(kW)] current = DC_Current(:,2); voltage = DC_Voltage(:,2); power = (current.*voltage)/1000; %% Calculate Energy [seconds,kw,(kwh)] 1605 Page 110 of 141

8.5. Vehicle Range Calculation The range calculation of this testing is performed by adding the actual miles driven in fuel economy test phases with non-profile testing energy consumption. Profile distances are fixed based on measurements of the oval track and are equal to the following. CBD cycle = 1.91 miles Arterial (ART) cycle = 1.91 miles Commuter phase = 3.82 miles. Any distance driven outside these phases, such as the drive to and from the start/stop point of the run to the charge station is accounted for using the following equation. Note, energy consumption is logged during all phases and sections. (3) Average fuel economy is calculated per phase and then overall based on the individual phase values. 8.6. Fluke 1730 AC Energy Analysis For capturing energy used to recharge the vehicle a Fluke 1730 is employed and installed just before the charge station on its AC power supply. A logged signal from the Fluke 1730 power meter is used to report energy consumption during the charge phase of this testing. A total Active Power signal is logged at a 1 second sample rate by the device. The following code is used to calculate the total charge energy required to fully charge the onboard electrical energy storage system. %% Load Data load(uigetfile); %% AC Energy Calculation time = [1:1:length(PowerP_Total_avg)]'; % PowerP_Total_avg = Watts, sample rate is 1 second energy = time*0; for i = 2:1:length(time) energy(i) = energy(i-1) + PowerP_Total_avg(i); % Ws 1605 Page 112 of 141

9 Test Results This section presents all results from testing on October 18 th 2016. This includes both on-road driving as well as stationary charging through facility power. 9.1. On-Road Testing The bus was fully charged prior to this test and data logging started before initial vehicle movement and just before the bus drove away from its charging station. The bus was driven in a counter clockwise direction around the test track oval until it could no longer keep up with the prescribed drive cycle speed. Then the bus was returned directly to the charge station followed by a full charge. Data was recorded and processed, as detailed above, and is presented here. 1605 Page 114 of 141

Note, the first and last phases listed above represent non-profile miles due to the drive to and from the start point on the track. The total non-profile energy consumption = 1.255 kwh (sum of first and last phase) Average Fuel Economy = 1.36 kwh/mile (from profile miles only) Additional Distance due to non-profile energy consumption = 0.92 miles Test profile miles = 106.96 miles Total vehicle range = profile miles + non-profile miles = 107.88 miles In summary, based on this test s profile the average fuel economy or energy consumption is calculated to be 1.36 kwh/mile or 27.71 MPG diesel equivalent and the total vehicle range is 107.88 miles per charge. 9.2. Charge Results The following results are an integration of active power measured by a Fluke 1730 Power Meter during the charging event following on-road, discharge/range test. Once the discharge portion of the run was complete a full charge was started and data logged until the charge was completed. 1605 Page 117 of 141

Figure 5. Charge Data This charge event following the on-road testing took approximate 145 minutes and consumed 183.53 kwh of AC energy from the buildings facilities to fully charge the battery pack to 100% SOC. 1605 Page 118 of 141

7. NOISE 7.1 INTERIOR NOISE AND VIBRATION TESTS 7.1-I. TEST OBJECTIVE The objective of these tests is to measure and record interior noise levels and check for audible vibration under various operating conditions. 7.1-II. TEST DESCRIPTION During this series of tests, the interior noise level will be measured at several locations with the bus operating under the following three conditions: 1. With the bus stationary, a white noise generating system shall provide a uniform sound pressure level equal to 80 db(a) on the left, exterior side of the bus. The engine and all accessories will be switched off and all openings including doors and windows will be closed. This test will be performed at the Test Track Facility. 2. The bus accelerating at full throttle from a standing start to 35 mph on a level pavement. All openings will be closed and all accessories will be operating during the test. This test will be performed on the track at the Test Track Facility. 3. The bus will be operated at various speeds from 0 to 55 mph with and without the air conditioning and accessories on. Any audible vibration or rattles will be noted. This test will be performed on the test segment between the Test Track and the Bus Testing Center. All tests will be performed in an area free from extraneous sound-making sources or reflecting surfaces. The ambient sound level as well as the surrounding weather conditions will be recorded in the test data. 7.1-III. DISCUSSION This test is performed in three parts. The first part exposes the exterior of the vehicle to 80.0 db(a) on the left side of the bus and the noise transmitted to the interior is measured. The overall average of the six measurements was 46.7 db(a); ranging from 45.1 db(a) at the rear passenger seats to 48.1 db(a) in line with the middle speaker. The interior ambient noise level for this test was < 30.0 db(a). The second test measures interior noise during acceleration from 0 to 35 mph. This noise level ranged from 71.3 db(a) at the rear passenger seats to 74.6 db(a) at the front passenger seats. The overall average was 73.1 db(a). The interior ambient noise level for this test was < 30.0 db(a). The third part of the test is to listen for resonant vibrations, rattles, and other noise sources while operating over the road. No vibrations or rattles were noted. 1605 Page 131 of 141

7.2 EXTERIOR NOISE TESTS 7.2-I. TEST OBJECTIVE The objective of this test is to record exterior noise levels when a bus is operated under various conditions. 7.2-II. TEST DESCRIPTION In the exterior noise tests, the bus will be operated at a SLW in three different conditions using a smooth, straight and level roadway: 1. Accelerating at full throttle from a constant speed at or below 35 mph and just prior to transmission up shift. 2. Accelerating at full throttle from standstill. 3. Stationary, with the engine at low idle, high idle, and wide open throttle. In addition, the buses will be tested with and without the air conditioning and all accessories operating. The exterior noise levels will be recorded. The test site is at the PSBRTF and the test procedures will be in accordance with SAE Standards SAE J366b, Exterior Sound Level for Heavy Trucks and Buses. The test site is an open space free of large reflecting surfaces. A noise meter placed at a specified location outside the bus will measure the noise level. During the test, special attention should be paid to: 1. The test site characteristics regarding parked vehicles, signboards, buildings, or other sound-reflecting surfaces 2. Proper usage of all test equipment including set-up and calibration 3. The ambient sound level 7.2-III. DISCUSSION The Exterior Noise Test determines the noise level generated by the vehicle under different driving conditions and at stationary low and high idle, with and without air conditioning and accessories operating. The test site is a large, level, bituminous paved area with no reflecting surfaces nearby. With an exterior ambient noise level of 35.1 db(a), the average test result obtained while accelerating from a constant speed was 66.9 db(a) on the right side and 66.3 db(a) on the left side. 1605 Page 136 of 141

When accelerating from a standstill with an exterior ambient noise level of 39.1 db(a), the average of the results obtained were 61.7 db(a) on the right side and 61.2 db(a) on the left side. With the vehicle stationary and the engine, accessories, and air conditioning on, the measurements averaged 40.0 db(a) at idle. With the accessories and air conditioning off, the readings averaged 0.1 db(a) lower at idle. Note: this electric test bus is not equipped with a high idle or wide open throttle mode. The exterior ambient noise level measured during this test was 39.0 db(a). 1605 Page 137 of 141
