Electricity-Powered VehicleAn electricity-operated four-passenger vehicle travelling for a distance of 120 km without re-charging Watch the project’s video: Watch   To reduce the negative impact of traditional means of transport vehicles powered by gasoline and diesel fuel and which include: 1. Air pollution 2. Noise 3. Traffic congestion 4. The high cost of transportation The design and manufacture of a vehicle powered by electric power may be the best solution to overcome the above-mentioned impacts, the project’ aim, which represents a direct application of the principle of technology  localization in order to produce a local product using national technology and manufacturing to design an electric vehicle for everyday use within the city, where consists of a small convenient structure to reduce the traffic congestion, which  is equipped with four seats, along with a 3000 watts engine, in addition to  a system of energy conservation  48-volt DC voltage and energy of 1600 amp/hr which qualifies it to travel at 60 km / h maximum within the city and to travel for a distance of 120 km without need to recharge. By producing this vehicle with a final cost which does not exceed 10,000 EGP, it will provide an ideal solution for a large segment of the Egyptian community by providing a local product for family use for transportation within the city, which could be suitable for university students, public-sector workers and employees with low-income. It was planned to implement the project in three phases:
Phase I:  Completed in 01/01/2008 - Design and implementation of the passengers’ seating structure. - Design and implementation of the suspension system. - Design and Execution of electric propulsion system. - Testing the efficiency of front and rear movement.
