Magnesium is very attractive material with the combination of good strength, low weight and low corrosiveness. The uses of its alloy materials through various manufacturing methods are found in aerospace and automotive components in common inspired by weight restriction and reduction. Magnesium alloys are very light, strong and also possesses high thermal radiation properties. The high performance magnesium alloys with high temperature characteristics, pressure tightness and their ability to produce complex shapes makes it suitable in producing different aircraft components. As, the whole world is moving into the future of electric mobility through e-bikes and cars, research is already into the choice of materials for its components. As weight to power ratio is the major design issue in e-vehicles, a project to optimize a perfect material for the chassis becomes essential in the development of e-mobility. This project is about determining the strength capability of magnesium alloys for suitability as a material in electric vehicle chassis that wants for high strength and low weight. Thus, magnesium alloys like AZ91D and AZ31B are chosen as per ASTM standards for a stress analysis into manufacturing of electric vehicle chassis. The chassis of electric vehicle is designed as per its requirements taking into consideration of present development and a static and dynamic analysis is being carried out using a suitable finite analysis package for determining an optimum material.
