Fraunhofer ISE: Wege zu einem klimaneutralen Energiesystem (2020).

do you refer to this table I the appendix?
Is it possible to get the reference for this? the vehicle prices are particularly low (lowest than any other technology).

I suggest to update not only the cost but to use similar concept for the efficiency. If we want to follow their approach of having an exogenous input for battery size and energy consumption (efficiency).

Yes, I mean that table.
We should read the data from the csv file included in the first message (let's avoid human reading from a pdf.)
The csv can be downloaded from Fraunhofer
Ideally, we create a PR to include that data in the technology-data repository and output files

Then, we could use prepare_costs() to deal with the cost and technology assumptions for different cars in a clean way.
I mention here @lisazeyen (just so that she is aware) who has already used these costs in previous work and provided the csv file
