D: LAB MOBILE SUMMER 2021: THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE PROJECT

With the rise in population and urbanization, transportation has become a sore subject, not only in Ghana but also in Africa, with overcrowding in the few means of transportation available. Through analyzing the aspect of cost, convenience and electric technology, the electric vehicle project was born. The idea is to create a low speed, four-wheeled, sustainable and eco-friendly four-seater public passenger vehicle; with the promise of comfort, safety and structural integrity specialized for short transit services. These vehicles will operate in cordoned areas such as campuses, airports, factories, parks, hospitals, retirement homes, and recreational spaces.


The milestones that have been achieved so far include:

● Vehicle concept design completed .

● Chassis design completed.

● Completed first phase of chassis fabrication.

● Finished with the first set of drivetrain components procured.
