Electric vehicles are gaining popularity all the time. As a result, they have become the subject of much research. The purpose of this work is to analyze the energy consumption of the vehicle depending on the specificity of the designated routes. For this purpose, three routes with different types of traffic have been designated. Then, the research test vehicle, together with the necessary equipment, made runs on the indicated roads. This made it possible to record the basic parameters related to the movement, such as: instantaneous velocity, acceleration, travel time and route length. Based on the collected data, simulation tests were carried out in the AVL Cruise program. The obtained results show the parameters related to energy consumption on each route. The amount of input and output energy from the battery, energy consumption per 1 km of the route and the course of changes in the battery current or changes in the battery charge status were determined. The conducted research allowed to obtain specific conclusions and propose further research directions.
