During the last ten years the electric vehicles became more and more part of the daily mobility. Supported by different policies, but also by the technology advance, the electromobility is far to be an achieved topic and enters a new decade. The hybrid solutions continue to offer an alternative using the combustion engines. Latest researches and developments on fuel cells push to an alternative future, based on hydrogen. The electric batteries, as energy storage on vehicle, remain the most important way to conduct EV to the roads, with regular improvements. In fact, all these technologies are developing solutions to provide and control the energy for an electric motor. The classic solution using one engine and a kinematic chain to distribute the mechanical power to the wheels is completed by the possibility to integrate not only one, but more electric motors in the same vehicle.

For electric vehiclepowertrains,many activities are performed using simulation of different components and sub-systemsand the research and teachingprocess uses successfullydifferenttools.Followingthis way, expensive physical elementsare avoided,and multiple configurationscould be studied,beforegoing to the next step.To capitalize on the virtual results, aphysical testisnecessary, even if itis performed on a reduced scale. Thispaper presentsa didactical platformfor multi-motor solutions inelectric vehicles, aplatform which can serve alsofor research activities related to analysisand control of electric powertrainswith at least two motors.
