Under the guidance of the "dual carbon" goals, the energy consumption driving range performance of electric light trucks have become key areas for technological breakthroughs. This paper employs a coupled approach based on rolling resistance and energy recovery strategies to conduct energy consumption, range tests, and simulation analyses on a prototype electric light truck. The results show that under both 40 km/h constant-speed and complex driving conditions, energy consumption and driving range improved. Low-resistance design significantly enhances driving range, while high-energy recovery intensity, although reducing energy consumption, has a negative impact on driving experience.
