2. To re-design and optimise the pedalbox of the Immortus

3.  An assembled device that
converts mechanical force to
the brakes and acceleration
systems from the driver
 Some pedal boxes contain a
clutch pedal, which aids in the
manual shifting of gears
 A pedal box should allow the
driver to have full control over
the vehicle’s acceleration and
braking performance

4.  Current design is lacking in a few
mechanical components to complete
its intended function
 The pedal box prototype provided by
EVX has not been optimised
sufficiently
 Our prototype currently does not
meet the required standards of the
EVX Immortus
 The prototype does not have the
required roadworthy standards
(rubber cover seals to prevent
slipping etc.)

5.  Floor Mounted push back
technology
 Adjustable Throttle geometry
 Dual Mounting feet - Reduce
floor modifications
 Adjustable push rod length
(Throttle progression)

6.  Current pedal box design is
not aesthetically pleasing
 The parts are very scattered
and overly complex
 Further refining is necessary
to create functional yet
streamlined design whilst
fulfilling EVX requirements
for the Immortus

7.  Multi ratio mounting brackets for brake pedal to allow
different rations to be used
 Baller bearings to be used to increase the smoothness
 Come up with a Innovative Design for throttle tuning via
unique PE Design without disassembly

8.  Refine the existing pedal box
 Continue exchanging information with Brakes, Acceleration
and Electrical Systems teams
 Must get in touch with Chassis team to discuss pedal box
placement
