Development, design and realization of an electric powertrain for a small range bus

This work deals with the development and prototyping process of an entire electric small range bus. The work includes also simulation, design, prototyping, evaluation, integration and realization with special emphasis on the electric powertrain. All components of the powertrain of the small range bus such as electrical machine, battery, power units, transmission, chassis etc. were implemented and modelen in a simulation environment. Some modeled components such as electric machine and battery were variegated in type and size. The design, realization and prototyping process of key components based on simulation results is presented as well as validation of the powertrain components, the entire vehicle concept and realization.
