Abstract

According to the Indian government's strategy on electric vehicles, more and more manufacturers are now manufacturing Electric rickshaws (E-rickshaw) for short-distance commuters. However, the producers either employ Lithium- ion (Li-ion) battery packs or lead-acid batteries, which were most recently used. Li-ion batteries have some drawbacks, such as memory issues and limited life spans. This project involves designing and fabricating a new, lighter-weight E-rickshaw chassis with a combie braking system for the rear wheel brake. Use a lithium ferro phosphate (LiFePO4) battery pack with an integrated battery management system (BMS) in place of the commonly used Li-ion battery pack to enhance the battery pack's lifespan. The E-mileage rickshaws are also improved by having a lighter frame.
