Steady state test results on a breadboard version of the General Electric Near Term Electric Vehicle (ETV-1) are presented. The breadboard was built using exact duplicate vehicle propulsion system components with few exceptions. Full instrumentation was provided to measure individual component efficiencies. Tests were conducted on a 50 hp dynamometer in the NASA Lewis Research Center Road Load Simulator Facility.
