Electric vehicle is gaining popularity due to
increasing concern for environment and green house
emission with conventional fossil fuel vehicle. Electric
vehicle may take time to become main stream in India,
but demand and push from government is making it fast.
Electric vehicle typically use about one third energy
as compared to gasoline powered vehicle because of high
efficiency. Electrical motors convert over 85% of electric
energy into mechanical power compared to less than
40% in internal combustion engine. Theoretical
calculation of vehicle performance is key for sizing the
gear ratios, battery and systems capacity to achieve
desired performance.
