Abstract

During fall 2009, the Eindhoven University of Technology started the development of the Lupo EL (Electric Lightweight) research vehicle. The vehicle is fully operational now, allowed to drive on the public road and used in several research projects. This paper will focus more in-depth on the vehicle development and the research performed. The following subjects will be addressed: vehicle realization, specification and performance, data acquisition systems and control systems.
Keywords: EV (electric vehicle); data acquisition; instrumentation; regenerative braking; vehicle performance EV (electric vehicle); data acquisition; instrumentation; regenerative braking; vehicle performance
