10. Challenges of the Project
The Challenges in the project due to the design were analyzed and solutions are offered keeping in
mind ease of manufacture, ease of use and cost to consumer.
Drive Cycle decision
Motor & Battery Selection
i-BMMC Development
-The data was recorded manually in Cab and may not match exactly with actual usage of a two wheelers.
- No data recorder used with GPS and speed capability to accurately monitor the vehicle speed.
- The calculations was done with keeping the Average speed in mind and according to individual driving situations.
- The integrated BMS & VCU reduces the development cost of Vehicle but needs a new architecture development.
- The new module needs to communicate using multiple protocols and require high level of expertise.
- The coding of these modules to work according to design parameters for Indian roads and traffic conditions.
- Taking into considerations the drive cycle for Indian roads and designing a CVT to allow the motor to adapt effectively.
- Balancing the torque and power requirement and the capacity of motor to deliver the same for given range of 200km.
- Finding a suitable battery tech to balance the charge density and keeping the battery pack under weight specifications

12. Summary & Conclusion
India offers unique challenges for an Electric two wheelers with high usage in Urban Areas
The expected price for the two wheeler with 200 Kms/350 GVW : 40,000 (Excluding Battery)
The Battery to power the E-Scooter is 6.78 kW with NMC Cells from GBS
The Motor selected for the project is from Golden Motors Make with rating 1.5KW
The Control System is developed i-BMMC as a Single Unit to monitor the Battery parameters and give input to
motor based on throttle input thus reducing the wiring & additional cost of hardware.
A digital cluster indicates the battery SOC , current speed and expected driving range ,an Eco mode Indicator.
Summary
Conclusion
The Battery cost is the major challenge for the project and with newer chemistries development over the coming years
we have decided to offer the battery on lease.
The present model is commercially developed will appeal tp the young generation to move to electric.
- The driving range of 200 Kms can be the USP and only needs single charging per week
High GVW achieved with the state of the art motor will allow the model to be modfied for Commercial Use.
