What engineering standards does this e-book cover?
This Electric Two-Wheeler Engineering — Scooter to High-Speed Bike spreadsheet provides a complete, code-compliant engineering solution.
AIS-156 Issue 2 (FAME-II type approval requirements for electric two-wheelers, India), UN ECE Regulation 136 (electric power-train safety for L-category vehicles), IS 16086:2018 (BIS standard for electric two-wheelers), AIS 038 Rev 1 (electric vehicle battery pack — safety requirements), and ARAI (Automotive Research Association of India) type approval procedures.
Frequently Asked Questions
What motor technology is most common for electric two-wheelers in India?
Hub-mounted BLDC (Brushless DC) motors are used in 78% of Indian electric two-wheelers (SMEV 2023 data) due to low cost and simple control. Mid-drive PMSM (Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) is used in performance segment (>45 km/h, >4 kW) for better efficiency (η = 92–96% vs. 85–90% for BLDC hub motors) and regenerative braking above 40% energy recovery. AFPM (Axial Flux Permanent Magnet) is emerging for compact high-power applications (>10 kW).
What is the FAME-II range requirement for electric scooters in India?
Under FAME-II (AIS-156 Issue 2), electric two-wheelers qualifying for subsidy must achieve: minimum range 80 km at 40 km/h constant speed (IDC test), minimum top speed 40 km/h, and minimum battery energy density 100 Wh/kg. Vehicles above 250W motor rating must comply with UN ECE R136 for type approval under the Central Motor Vehicles Rules 1989.
What battery chemistry and pack voltage are used in Indian electric two-wheelers?
Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP, LiFePO4): 85% of new Indian EV scooters (2023) — 3.2V nominal per cell, cycle life 2,000+ cycles to 80% capacity. Pack voltage: 48V (16S LFP, common for low-speed scooters), 60V (20S), 72V (24S for mid-range). NMC (Li-Ni-Mn-Co-O2): 3.6V nominal, used in performance segment for higher energy density (200–250 Wh/kg vs. 120–140 Wh/kg for LFP). IS 16086 requires BMS with overcharge (>4.25V/cell), over-discharge (<2.5V/cell), and thermal runaway protection.
