ELECTRIC KARTING – FROM AN IDEA TO THE REALISATION
Journal Title: Mobility and Vehicle Mechanics - Year 2018, Vol 44, Issue 1
Abstract
It is certain that the first steps of the vehicle drives each individual person were made in karting vehicle. Additional adrenaline and increase driving pleasure gives extremely high noise and the smell of combustion products that may still endure when the ride takes place on an open track during sunny days. However, for many years karting rides take place indoors where it is necessary to provide a special ventilation system for undesirable combustion products. In order to avoid problems of air pollution indoors, reduce noise, and raise awareness of young generations in terms of preservation of the environment, today is increasingly use of electric karting. Having in mind the multiple benefits of electric drive, a reconstruction of karting vehicle with petrol engine into electric karting is presented in the paper. A special attention was paid to the selection of the electric powertrain and battery storage units for electricity, as well as dynamic characteristics of the reconstructed electric vehicle
