Abstract

The transition toward sustainable transportation has accelerated the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), particularly in urban mobility applications. This work presents the design and fabrication of a two-wheeler electric vehicle integrated with GPS tracking technology. The developed system combines a lithium-ion battery-powered propulsion unit with a BLDC hub motor to achieve efficient, emission-free operation. The integration of GPS-based monitoring enhances vehicle security, real-time tracking, and intelligent mobility management. The fabricated prototype demonstrates a practical range of approximately 60 km per charge with a top speed of 40–50 km/h, making it suitable for urban commuting. The inclusion of IoT-enabled tracking enables features such as geofencing, route history, and theft alerts. Experimental evaluation confirms the effectiveness of the system in terms of energy efficiency, operational cost reduction, and enhanced safety. The proposed system contributes to smart city initiatives by combining clean energy propulsion with digital connectivity.
