Abstract: The paper studies the scope, performs the modelling and validation for conversion of any Convetional Vehicle to a Split Parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicle. The introduction of a smart Energy Management System for sucha setup is also evaluated. The EMS enables load sharing between the IC Engine and the Traction motor based on the gradient of the road. The gradient analysis is performed using the GPS based road gradient database. For the accurate modelling and the dynamic analysis of the designed model the performance of the vehicle’s Degrees of Freedom (DoF) for the variation in steering angle is analyzed. 14 DoF parameters are considered and the designed vehicle is subjected to variation in steer angle followed by the analysis on the response of the DoF parameters.
