Electric vehicle for the disabled is an independent mono seated vehicle that can assist to promote mobility and enhance quality of life of people, especially those who have difficulties in walking and are unable to commute to nearby places. To ensure effective mobility, users need a vehicle which fits their wheelchair correctly and meets their specific needs. In this vehicle, the frame is completely modified and incorporates a ramp at the rear end with thin iron rods attached, in the form of tracks which helps the user to get inside the vehicle using wheelchair. It also has a controller which controls the overall electrical operation of the vehicle. The speed variation is done using a hand throttle that is connected to BLDC motor via controller. The vehicle is designed for 200kg weight, 25 kmph maximum speed with length and width of the vehicle 1.5m and 0.7m respectively. A low, medium and high-speed switch is used to set the desired speed accordingly. The vehicle also has a battery indicator connected to controller so that the user is aware of the battery consumption.
