A Lifecycle Costing Tool (LCT) can assist in selecting new fleet vehicles and accelerate the adoption of low-emission vehicles. This project's tool allows for a comparison of lifecycle costs between various battery electric, plug-in hybrid electric, and internal combustion engine vehicle models. The report includes best practice research and an overview of available LCTs in North America, examples of tool metrics, calculation approaches, the final tool description, and user guide.
