Abstract

Abstract: Electric vehicles (EVs) have the potential to reduce negative effects on the environment and are increasingly used in developing countries like India in the logistics sector. The purpose of this paper is to aid business operations in the logistics sector through better vehicle ergonomics as well as driver training methods. The introduction of Electric Mini Trucks in India aims to be a game changer by eradicating many of the existing issues faced with ICE Mini Trucks such as health related conditions caused by the vibrations, poor ride quality and driver discomfort. For an Electric Vehicle to be used in a safe and effective manner some additional design characteristics have to be kept in mind to adjust for the lack of formal training for most vehicle drivers who are already operating under road conditions that are cognitive overloads. Hence, in addition to the normal range anxiety, the thermal monitoring of the battery pack and energy consumption have to be reported with proven continuous feedback mechanisms.
