Abstract :
The most distinct advantage of an electric vehicle is in its quick and precise torque generation. The authors propose two novel traction control techniques of electric vehicles: model-following control; and optimal slip ratio control. Their effectiveness is demonstrated by using the “UOT Electric March” test vehicle
