“…The industry has achieved compliance with environmental regulations thanks, in the main, to mass production of electric vehicles. (Jasiński et al, 2021; Krings & Monissen, 2020). In this context, these vehicles need to be based on a modular platform design that allows different models to be manufactured on the same platform.…”

“…In recent years, automobile manufacturers have been developing new MEVPs to produce electric vehicles (Krings & Monissen, 2020). In terms of product architecture, the design of the MEVPs includes new elements, particularly the batteries and the electric drive system, and has different design requirements to the MPs (Nicoletti et al, 2020).…”

“…Production systems for new MEVPs must have the efficiency required for the mass production of electric vehicles (Krings & Monissen, 2020). In 2030, 30% of all vehicles worldwide are predicted to be electric (Rietmann et al, 2020), although the final percentage will depend on how society takes up new trends in mobility (e.g., Mobility‐as‐a‐Sevice or Peak Car) (Turienzo et al, 2022).…”

Electric vehicles have been based on a new product architecture: modular electric vehicle platforms (MEVPs). Through a case study, this paper uses efficiency and sustainability criteria to analyse this modular architecture as implemented by three automobile manufacturers in their European production networks. The results show that MEVPs have been adopted to achieve the efficiency of mass-production electric vehicles in order to comply with regulatory environmental requirements. MEVPs are designed with structural compatible modules, an electric drive system architecture and modular batteries that can be adapted to each vehicle. These designs are focused on limiting energy consumption by reducing weight with the use of high-performance materials or extrathin batteries. Some of these MEVPs use fewer components in their design to facilitate disassembly and recycling. This new modular architecture has been implemented through compatible, flexible production systems accompanied by different sustainable production initiatives. The production system has incorporated carbon-neutral production processes or circular economy production models, which include remanufacturing and reuse. Networks resulting from these new MEVPs are geographically concentrated and are not conditioned by location factors. The roles of the plants have been mainly driven by economies of scale to achieve high-performance specialised products and high volumes. These plants play a role as hubs for electric vehicle production in the manufacturers' European production networks.

“…The ability of the permanent magnet-based machines to develop permanent magnet torque and reluctance torque and to achieve a wide high constant power speed range operations has increased their appeal for traction drive systems, with their much-improved magnetic properties when compared to non-rare-earth based magnets, which make it possible to achieve the desired performance. The rare-earth magnets are equivalent magnetically to very high current coils (of the order of 1 kA per mm magnet thickness) with no loss according to [24]. The rare earth magnetic materials, especially neodymium iron boron, form the basis for the traction motors used in many of today's leading electric vehicles.…”

The interest in electric traction has reached a very high level in recent decades; there is no doubt that electric vehicles have become among the main means of transport and will be the first choice in the future, but to dominate the market, a lot of research efforts are still devoted to this purpose. Electric machines are crucial components of electric vehicle powertrains. The bulk of traction drive systems have converged in recent years toward having some sort of permanent magnet machines because there is a growing trend toward enhancing the power density and efficiency of traction machines, resulting in unique designs and refinements to fundamental machine topologies, as well as the introduction of new machine classes. This paper presents the technological aspect of the different components of the electric powertrain and highlights the important information on the electric vehicle’s architecture. It focuses on a multi-criteria comparison of different electric motors utilized in the electric traction system to give a clear vision to allow choosing the adequate electrical motor for the desired application. The proposed comparative analysis shows that the induction motor better meets the major necessities of the electric powertrain, whereas the permanent magnet synchronous motor is nonetheless the most used by electric vehicle manufacturers.

“…On the other hand, the IPM synchronous machines are highly versatile and well-suited for numerous electric vehicles (EVs) due to their magnetic saliency, which enables them to generate torque by utilising both the PM and reluctance torque. These qualities have subsidised to the increasing popularity of IPM synchronous machines as the preferred choice for driving Electric Vehicles, including models like Lucid, Camry, Leaf, Honda-Accord, Mitsubishi-Outlander, Renault Zoe, Audi-e-Tron, Porsche-Taycan, Tesla Model-3, Toyota Prius 2010 model, and others [5][6][7][8][9][10][11].…”

A novel asymmetric delta‐type and Spoke‐type interior permanent magnet synchronous machine (ASD‐IPM) is proposed for electric vehicles (EVs) application that uses the magnetic field shifting technique to maximise the average torque and lessen torque ripples. The proposed ASD‐IPM is deduced from the conventional asymmetric spoke and V‐shape IPM by attaching additional asymmetric flux barriers (AFB) to the left side of the spoke‐type PMs and to the other side of the delta‐type PMs. This configuration helps in reducing the leakage flux and achieving good flux concentration. The proposed design is optimised through a Genetic Algorithm (GA) to investigate the electromagnetic performances at no‐load and on‐load conditions. Also, the efficiency maps of both the proposed design and conventional design are analysed and compared. The results show that the proposed ASD‐AIPM has superior efficiency and a favorable torque profile, making it a suitable choice for electric vehicle applications. Furthermore, the proposed design is rescaled to the Toyota Prius 2010 design, with the only change in the slot/pole pair combination due to the presence of spoke‐PMs in the proposed design. The proposed ASD‐IPM achieves 7% higher torque than the existing Toyota Prius 2010 model. The efficiency maps of the rescaled design are also analysed and compared.
