摘要

The 21st century certainly poses new challenges for the construction of means and systems of transport, particularly in the greater metropolitan areas. Issues related with public transport are generally well-known. Research studies are constructively oriented towards finding solutions to reduce energy consumption, minimize construction and maintenance costs, guarantee profitability, reduce emissions of air pollutants, and first and foremost, solutions which would be human-friendly and specifically tailored to meet the needs of the people. This paper presents the concept of a new electric ECO-car designed within the remit of the scientific and research programme at Warsaw University of Technology. The car is equipped to carry both able-bodied passengers and the disabled. The car uses an integrated drive and brake-by-wire system, as well as powered by lithium-ion batteries and a super capacitor system. During the design process special attention was also paid to ergonomic issues. Due to the theme of the conference, special attention will be paid to the dynamic properties of a complex system of driver-vehicle-road. It will show dynamic phenomena in the implementation of the so-called moose test.
