Abstract
Based on the comparative analysis of the performance characteristics of centralized and distributed drive electric vehicles, we found that the wheel hub motor drive mode of the electric vehicles with distributed drive have compact structure, high utilization ratio of interior vehicle space, lower center of vehicle gravity, good driving stability, easy intelligent control and many other advantages, hence in line with the new requirements for the development of drive performance of electric vehicles, and distributed drive will be the ultimate mode of electric vehicles in the future.
Highlights
Drive ModeAccording to the different installation locations of drive motor in electric vehicles, there are single-motor centralized drive and multi-motor distributed drive modes
Compared with conventional vehicles, electric vehicles have the advantages of high efficiency of energy conversion, low noise, zero emission, etc., and the load-carrying property and wide range speed control characteristics of motors can remove the mechanical devices such as clutch and gearbox, simplifying the structure and facilitating maintenance [1, 2]
Wheel hub motor drive is the most advanced electric vehicle driving technology, which installs two, four or more motors in the wheel, direct driving wheels, commonly known as electric wheels, which is especially suitable for pure electric vehicles
Summary
According to the different installation locations of drive motor in electric vehicles, there are single-motor centralized drive and multi-motor distributed drive modes. Distributed drive is further divided into wheel side motor drive and wheel hub motor drive
