  • First Online:
Autonomous Driving Changes the Future

Abstract

An electric vehicle features highly electrified characteristics. It is equipped with a complete power driving system network which includes motors, battery and electronic control units. As a result, an electric vehicle is more suitable to mechanical-electrical integration, and the use of an automated control system and management system. Compared to its gasoline-fueled counterpart, an EV is therefore more suitable to serve as a carrier for autonomous driving.
