The electrification of the transport sector is a key strategy to reduce CO2 emissions and limit global warming. In this context, the electric two-wheelers play a crucial role in urban mobility, especially in countries like India and China. This thesis investigates the use of a variable flux permanent magnet motor (VFM) in the drivetrain of an electric two-wheeler, proving its superior performance compared to a commercial motor (CM). The VFM motor allows flux regulation through changes in the air gap configuration, enabling a wider and more efficient torque-speed operating range. The electric two-wheeler is simulated using a Simulink model to determine the motor’s operating conditions across various drive cycles.
