Sub-systems of the vehicle

1.Electrical and Human drivetrains: –  One of the main challenge faced in this project is the design of drive trains. since the objective of this project is to design a eco-friendly vehicle which can be driven with electric power (using motor) and human effort (pedaling). The working of these two drivetrain systems can be pictured from the below Figures.

(b) Human drive train (pedaling)

2. Steering:- design of steering is one of the captivating thing done by Team MECHAVOLTZ. A simple steering mechanism with minimal effort and cost are the key achievements in this design. one can imagine the ease of mechanism from the below Figure.

3. Suspensions:- A wish-bone suspension is used for the Mechavoltz. selection of suspension requires considerable knowledge in weight, ground clearance, speed, the position of the engine, track-width, etc. Team Mechavoltz has done an Excellent Job in this case. Wishbone suspension is shown in the below figure.
