Computer simulation tools can give early indicators of key vehicle characteristics. In traditional hybrid vehicles, this is important in designing for optimal fuel consumption; in plug-in hybrids and pure electric vehicles, it is critical for accurate prediction of range, a key market qualifier. There are a variety of techniques, typically operating at different levels of fidelity and employing different modelling philosophies. This paper develops on earlier work, exploring conventional and `backward' techniques in the context of current NEDC-based UNECE vehicle testing standards and the proposed replacements based on the World Light Test Procedure. Model sensitivities for A, C and D-segment vehicles are quantified and this is used to explore aspects where accurate models are key and where lower-fidelity representative models are appropriate. The paper also explores the sensitivity of predictions to `PID control' driver models, and discusses the effect of cycle-following tolerance on predictions. Finally, the paper proposes new standards - suitable for simulation or real-world testing - for a common quantification of in-use battery lifetime. The use of these techniques and the sensitivity analysis methods on a representative simulation model is demonstrated as a case study, and the impacts on battery management strategy design are explored.
