Abstract

Electric vehicles are becoming a popular choice for daily travel due to their cheaper running costs and reduced impact on climate change. Recently, companies are starting to show interest in the design and development of electric recreational vehicles for the tourism and leisure market. Hence, this paper reviews the current motorhome market in New Zealand focussing on the country's largest motorhome provider. Following this, some existing electric motorhomes or prototypes and conversions currently available in the world are reviewed. Some of the key factors of electric motorhome design are presented and their relationship to major components in an electric vehicle is analysed. The drivetrain configuration, battery, and electric motor must be selected to work in harmony in order to maximise the benefits of moving to an electric or hybrid system.

房车调查和开发电动房车时需要考虑的关键因素
电动汽车由于其更便宜的运行成本和对气候变化的影响较小,正成为日常出行的热门选择。最近,企业开始对旅游休闲市场的电动休闲车的设计和开发表现出兴趣。因此,本文回顾了目前的房车市场在新西兰集中在该国最大的房车供应商。在此之后,一些现有的电动房车或原型和转换目前在世界上可用的审查。提出了电动房车设计的一些关键因素,并分析了它们与电动汽车主要部件的关系。动力传动系统配置、电池和电动机必须选择协调工作,以最大限度地提高转向电动或混合动力系统的好处。
