Abstract

Electric Vehicles (EV) are the prompt solution to significantly lowering the use of fossil fuels and CO2 emissions from the transport industry. There is a continuing growth in the number of EVs in use, but their huge acceptance by customers is associated to the quality they can provide. Nowadays, different types of electric vehicles are moving toward green awareness, and one among them is the electric motorcycle which is a considerable vehicle in India. Though there are many benefits of driving electric motorcycles, because of the limited driving range and inadequate charging stations, it is still not generally accepted in the industry. Range anxiety is the major market concern that is solved by the implementation of an additional range estimating technique that can ease the "range anxiety" caused by the restricted range of EVs. Therefore, this paper proposes a fuzzy logic controller model for the estimation of the EV range based on the battery's state of charge and the load's power usage. In this work, the load power consumption of the vehicle and the status of the battery charge are selected as inputs and the EV range is selected as a Fuzzy Logic Controller output. This model is implemented in the Matlab/Simulink environment.
