In this paper, an enhanced indirect instantaneous‐torque‐control is proposed based on the torque sharing function approach of switched reluctance motor drives for electric vehicles by employing the jelly fish search. The major goal is to attain vehicle desires that include minimal torque ripple, maximum torque per ampere (MTPA), and huge performance and extend speed limit. First, a simplest analytic design is developed a determine more proficient turn‐on angle for the torque product. Second, an altered torque sharing function (TSF) is used for compensating the faults of torque tracking. The proposed technique is calculated to represent an accurate switched reluctance motor and its magnetized features. They have worked to create the machine model and execute the necessary transmits. The torque fault is evaluated and compensated inside the torque sharing function. The adapting TSF is compensates for the torque fault with receiving the phase because it is the minimal flux rate connecting variation. Finally, the jellyfish search technique is accepted to determine the optimal control parameters. The proposed strategies are done in MATLAB and its performance is contrasted with different existing strategies. According to the simulation result, the proposed strategy‐based accuracy is 94.2% at 50 iteration and 80% at 100th iteration which is higher than the existing methods. From this analyses, it proved that the proposed technique gives superior performance to existing one.
