Abstract
CIDAUT Foundation is a Research and Development Centre for Transport and Energy in Spain. One of CIDAUT´s current lines of work is sustainable mobility, involving the electric vehicle and its infrastructure. In order to advance in this direction CIDAUT has designed and manufactured a technological demonstrator consisting on an electric vehicle. This vehicle is been used to test different powertrain configurations, batteries technologies, electronics, dynamics, etc. The main characteristics of this demonstrator are: the use of two independent motors in the rear wheels; its variable dynamic behaviour; exterior rear mirrors replaced by cameras; exterior lights changed for LED; and the possibility to record all the important parameters from the batteries in real time.
