Abstract

This paper focuses on the design and development of an electric vehicle (EV) equipped with a dual battery system to enhance the range and to ensure emergency preparedness. The vehicle features a chief high-capacity battery pack for regular driving, supplemented by a portable second battery pack that can be manually activated for emergency continuation of the travel. The second battery is portable, compact and offers a dual charging option, including solar panels integrated into the vehicle and a conventional plug-in charger. This system provides flexibility in charging under various conditions, such as off-grid or remote locations. A manual changeover system enables seamless switching between the battery packs, while the vehicle's control system ensures efficient power management, safety, and user-friendly operation. This design addresses key challenges such as range anxiety, charging infrastructure limitations, and sustainable energy use, providing a versatile and practical solution for modern EV needs.
