Abstract:

The paper mainly focuses on speed control mechanism of electric vehicle and the most affordable approach. As

the awareness of environment grows among people, the usage of electric vehicles has significantly increased. This paper

includes various techniques used in speed control of electric vehicles in present marker and proposes an alternate solution

for the same. This paper also focuses on the various flaws that are encountered in the electric vehicles in market. This

proposal of alternate solution mainly aims to reduce the cost usage in the manufacturing of electric vehicles at the same

time maintaining the efficiency in speed control. The field-oriented control method is implemented along with dsPIC

controller. The dsPIC controller offers increased efficiency, integrated peripherals and reduced system cost. The field-

oriented control is a better approach to control the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (PMSM). The PMSM offers

smooth operation, better durability and regenerative braking and hence stands as a better option than (BLDC) Brushless

Direct Current motors. Hence making a significant progress towards attracting more consumers towards electric vehicles.
