Determinación de la capacidad de aceleración y frenado de un (EV) vehículo eléctrico SUV

Abstract

Over the years, the automotive industry has experienced remarkable technological advances, most notably the rise of electric vehicles (EV) and their improved accessibility. Understanding the dynamic performance of these vehicles through testing in real-world environments is crucial for users to appreciate their benefits. This study focuses on determining the acceleration and braking capability of an electric SUV through road testing and software analysis. The methodology adopted combines inductive and inductive-deductive approaches. A comparative analysis of the time required for the vehicle to reach 100 km/h and its braking capability at various speeds were performed. In addition, Simulink software and Matlab programming codes are used to create a mathematical model. The results are compared with applicable standards, allowing ideal operating ranges to be established for this type of vehicle. The results reveal the dynamic capabilities of the electric SUV compared to conventional combustion vehicles in the local environment. The average acceleration time from 0 to 100 km/h is 9.57 seconds, and the braking distances are 5 meters at 40 km/h, 7 meters at 60 km/h and 10 meters at 80 km/h, respectively. These results demonstrate the efficiency of electric vehicles, thanks to their precise control and accurate programming, providing quick responses and significantly lower acceleration times compared to their combustion counterparts.
