The torque and current requirement of a vehicle, be it a hybrid vehicle or purely electric vehicle, tends to vary as per the variations in the driving cycles, for example while going uphill the torque requirement of the vehicle entails for a sudden increase and similarly when the vehicle is traversing downhill the torque requirement of the vehicle deteriorates. In case of hybrid vehicles as well as purely electric vehicles, the electric motor forms the integral part which caters to the torque and current requirements. Since the performances of various electric motors are distinct from one another due to their unique characteristics, so for an optimized output one has to compromise upon one parameter or the other. In order to avoid this and enhance the performance in this research, instead of using a single electric motor to satisfy the vehicle's requirement like that of torque and current, two or more than two electric motors are used in order to avail their combined features.
