Abstract

The development of alternative vehicle were continued by designing hybrid vehicle that using compressed air and electrical propulsion. This compressed air propulsion on the rear wheels and two electric motor as a front wheel drive (FWD) were installed independently, where left and right can rotate with different speeds and direction. Independent FWD could be a problem when two wheels has a different rotation. The first experiment was tested by measuring the rotation per minute (RPM) on each wheel. Measurement were performed by varying the position of the throttle pedal. The result of measurements on both wheels rotating speed showed a difference of 1 %. The second test was to compare the space requirement, which derived from the function of cornering radius. Space requirement for inactive vehicle cornering system is 4.52 meters and 3.39 meters when system is active.
