Better, faster, cheaper – Get all three with “Decide”

LOS ANGELES, JUN 15, 2020 / — Consumers, OEMs and dealers are rapidly adapting in the wake of Covid-19 pandemic with increased digitization, more customized services, faster response times and more information they can really trust. AMCI Testing is answering this call with “Decide”.
For over 35 years AMCI Testing has been the trusted source for Certified 3rd party evaluations. Our extensive testing is the gold standard in the industry. It does however take time that in many cases, OEM’s no longer feel they can afford in this hyper competitive environment. In developing “Decide” we focused on the core, quality elements of our testing and our clients’ need for speed, lower cost and seamless distribution of content. The result is a fully integrated, customized “campaign in a box” that is ready to go live in under three weeks.

WHY WE CHOSE 6 MINUTES.

Six minutes is the average time it takes to fuel an ICE vehicle. When you are out of charge or time in your EV, charging speed is what counts. Further, “To achieve the environmental promise of EVs there needs to be a greater emphasis on fast charging, not range,” according to AMCI Global CEO, David Stokols.

CHARGING SPEED OR RANGE?

According to Guy Mangiamele, Director of AMCI Testing, “There needs to be equal emphasis on vehicle range and charging speed. Regardless of range, when on the road, when short of time, or short of range, charging speed is what really matters.”

TEST METHODOLOGY

With EV charging methodology established over a decade, our proprietary protocol begins with 10% state of charge, MP6 is calculated over numerous charging sessions at stations always exceeding the vehicle’s maximum charge rate.
