Electric means of urban transport in practice

Currently, great attention is paid to environmental protection issues in the context of the impact of transport on the environment. Most research and analyzes on electromobility indicate that vehicles using electricity produce less pollution than vehicles powered by an internal combustion engine. Another problem is the number of vehicles on the road, causing traffic jams. A diminutive form of personal transport around the city can be proposed to reduce the number of motor vehicles on the streets. The proposed urban electric vehicle is a four-wheeled vehicle powered by a charging station based on renewable energy sources. It is intended mainly for transporting people with specific disabilities. It is intended mainly for transporting older people and people with specific disabilities. For health reasons, these people cannot use publicly available means of personal transport such as an electric scooter or an electric bicycle. The vehicle can handle bicycle paths, parks, and short distances. The use of the GPS and Line Follower systems based on the adaptation of the infrastructure to this vehicle will ensure its full autonomy. This article presents simulation tests of air resistance while driving using SOLIDWORKS Flow Simulation, then examines the technical parameters of the vehicle in real conditions, i.e., city driving. The research results turn out to be promising because the use of such a vehicle seems to be practical.
