LIGHTWEIGHT ELECTRIC VEHICLE
The idea includes the concept of developing, manufacturing and testing a light electric vehicle (LEV) for dedicated use in urban, rural environments and car sharing, green logistics in urban centers and other travel needs of users, and consequently a positive impact on climate loads.
The graph shows the environmental load of daily passenger car transport in the United States (California) and shows that only 6% of daily passenger transport is performed over a distance of 45 miles (72km). personal vehicle to cover rides in the full range of personal transport needs, to take into account the wishes of individual users and thus maintain the ecological attitude towards the environment and climate change.
In the distribution of personal transport across the entire spectrum of use, the key approach is to use a means of transport that communicates whether the user is ecologically aware or has an irrational lifestyle, which emphasizes status symbols and generally does not recognize environmental issues. At present, this ratio is leaning in favor of the latter. The future definitely belongs to ecology, mainly due to the coming ecological awareness of the younger generations, who are, as a rule, more and more ecologically educated. There is also increasing activity of politicians and government decision-makers, which is reflected in various levies and restrictions on the use of ecologically questionable means of transport. It is expected that the automotive industry will have to offer environmentally friendly products based on a minimum carbon footprint (CO2 emissions), which depends on the “dirty energy” present in the process of manufacturing, use and decomposition of the product, as well as weight, aerodynamics, levels of recuperative energy (braking, oscillating) and levels of complexity of recycling processes.
