Next generation electric vehicles: development of key technologies and full vehicle testing

对车辆效率、安全性、可持续性和舒适性的期望不断提高，是当今全球汽车行业的主要市场驱动力。我们高度期望，在不牺牲性能、成本效益和安全性的情况下，开发既能提高燃油效率又能减少有害排放的领先技术解决方案，将继续成为未来战略研发计划的前沿。汽车电气化具有低至零排放的潜力，是应对全球能源危机和迅速接近的排放限制的最有前途的绿色解决方案之一。事实上，电动汽车（EV）预计将在2030年之前主导乘用车市场。然而，电动汽车是复杂的多学科系统，需要大量复杂的组件和子系统， 重大的设计和开发挑战，无法解决与完善的传统技术和工艺。鉴于实现积极的新碳管理目标的准备时间很短，迫切需要 加拿大公司将开发具有成本效益和时间效益的解决方案来应对这些挑战，以确保他们在向可持续道路交通系统过渡时保持领先地位。该项目将解决阻碍电动汽车广泛采用的许多挑战，包括开发和验证关键技术，如车辆稳定性控制、电源管理系统以及电池监控和充电设备。此外，还将开发创新的设计工具，简化从设计到商业化的过程，以减少加拿大电动汽车生产的时间和成本。总的来说，这些进步将大大减少对环境的影响， 制造越南制造的电动汽车和相关系统。

Rising expectations for vehicle efficiency, safety, sustainability, and comfort are the primary market drivers in the global automotive industry today. It is highly anticipated that development of leading-edge technological solutions that will both enhance fuel efficiency and reduce harmful emissions, without sacrificing performance, cost-efficiency and safety, will continue to be at the forefront of strategic R&D initiatives well into the future. With the potential for low-to-zero emissions, vehicle electrification is one of the most promising green solutions to both the global energy crisis and rapidly approaching emissions restrictions. In fact, electric vehicles (EV) are predicted to dominate the passenger vehicle market before 2030. However, electric vehicles are complex multidisciplinary systems, requiring a raft of complex components and subsystems that pose significant design and development challenges that cannot be solved with well-established conventional technologies and processes. Given the short lead time to meet aggressive new carbon management targets, there is an urgent need for Canadian companies to develop cost-effective and time-efficient solutions to these challenges to ensure they stay ahead of the transition to sustainable road mobility systems. The proposed project will address many of the challenges hindering widespread adoption of electric vehicles, including development and validation of key enabling technologies, such as vehicle stability control, power management systems, and battery monitoring and charging devices. Innovative design tools that will streamline the design-to-commercialization process will also be developed to reduce both time and cost of EV production in Canada. Collectively, these advancements will drastically reduce environmental impacts while accelerating fabrication of Canadian-made electric vehicles and related systems.
