Abstract

Electric mobility development is rapid spreading in the most advanced countries of the world because of the high efficiency showed by the current electric vehicles (EVs). On this line, Latin America has started the inclusion of these technologies in some countries. Nevertheless, despite the technological development of EVs, such as electric motorcycles, there are still pending investigations regarding the increase in their autonomy. The present research proposes a regenerative braking system for a specific electric motorcycle: Model Sakura M500, with the purposes of increase the autonomy of the mentioned EV. The VDI 2206 methodology is applied to the development of the regenerative braking system, including conceptual design, detailed design and experimental tests; concluding with positive outcomes of autonomy.
