Abstract: With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, the widespread application of pure electric buses in urban transportation has brought increasing attention to the challenges of energy consumption management and operational efficiency. To achieve accurate evaluation and prediction of energy consumption during vehicle operation, a hybrid prediction method is proposed that integrates physical mechanism modeling with deep learning techniques. Taking the vehicle longitudinal dynamics model as the theoretical foundation, the method establishes the relationship between energy consumption and operational parameters. Key physical features are extracted from naturalistic driving data. To effectively capture the temporal characteristics of energy consumption, a multi-layer long short term memory (LSTM) network architecture is designed to construct a data-driven sequence prediction model. The proposed model is validated using real-world driving data from four different electric buses. Experimental results show that the model achieves an average R2 of 0.85 and a mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of 8.34%, demonstrating strong predictive accuracy and generalization capability. This method proves effective in characterizing the energy consumption behavior of pure electric buses under complex driving conditions, exhibiting high fitting ability and adaptability. It provides a solid theoretical basis and methodological support for the optimization of energy-efficient driving strategies and the design of energy management systems.
