Abstract

In an electric vehicle, the wheels are one of the heaviest components of the vehicle. This paper aims to reduce the mass of the existing wheels for reduction in energy consumption as well as increasing the precision in steering. In this paper, an electric sedan is taken as the reference for studying the wheel and the boundary conditions are decided according to its specifications. Reduction in mass is achieved by designing a composite wheel for the boundary conditions. A reduction of 58% is achieved on the total mass of wheel.
