Advanced Vehicle Testing Data (Idaho National Laboratory)

[woof]

I just discovered a trove of EV data from the Center for Advanced Energy Studies, Advanced Vehicle Testing Data, by the DOE's Idaho National Laboratory.

Some really nice testing of EV's, especially the i3 and LEAF. Sorry, no Tesla data.

Hmm... Very cool data but why the heck were they testing the 2012 LEAF sometime in 2014 or 2015? The 2013 LEAF battery is supposed to do much better at avoiding degradation due to heat. The 2013 or the new 30kwh 2016 battery are the ones people want hard data on, not the 2012 battery.
